Every once in awhile we treat our self to Lasagna. Yesterday we just happened to do so. After the past week a treat is well deserved. I decided to share it with you after I was half way through the process.
This is what it looks like prior to going into the oven @350 F. There are four layers. The First item that is put down is some sauce to prevent sticking then a layer of noodles. On top of the noodles the first layer of ingredient, sauce, meat, all cheeses then layer of noodles. Repeat filling you pan to the top. In this case four layers.

Everyone seems to have a different way of making lasagna. This is for many reasons and tastes. We do not use a lot of spices due to my intolerance I have to them. The trick to lasagna is all in the cheeses. The three cheeses we use give a good blend of taste to the meal. The cheeses we use are a little on the costly side compared to the off the shelf ones. But better taste and texture.
