TWO SAUCE WEEKNIGHT LASAGNA BOWLS



Two Sauce Weeknight Lasagna Bowls image

Classic lasagna in my family is made by layering thin lasagna noodles, preferable egg pasta, with layers of bechemel or white sauce, and a light meat sauce. Here, curly short-cut pasta is topped with the white sauce and topped with a rich meat sauce for mixing in.
