If Lasagna sounds like a dish that’s way
out to you, we invite you to take a look at the
following recipes, Lasagna is essentially an
Italian dish but it has been revised to suit the
taste of those who do not care for a highly sea
soned food. You might try Casserole Lasagna
or the All-American Lasagna.
