Lasagna. Just the hearing or saying the word makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Especially when it comes to this perfect dish. The layers of noodles, pasta sauce, cheese filling, and melted cheese on that top layer make for a delicious lasagna.
See, it was my mother’s and one of THE recipes she absolutely knocked out of the park. This original recipe makes a VERY full and heavy 9X13-inch pan and tastes even better the next day. No lie.
Bake the Lasagna Turn the oven on to 350ºF so it can preheat while you’re assembling the lasagna. Once the lasagna is ready, cover the pan with a layer of aluminum foil. Place the pan in the oven and allow it to bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil so the cheese can brown.
