Lasagna are like ogres. Ogres have layers. Lasagnas have layers. You get it. They both have layers. So come over to mah swamp and let me feed you from a hotel pan filled with 100 layers of lasagna-y goodness! Yep, that means 33 layers of noodles, 33 layers of beschamel, 33 layers of meaty red sauce, and a final layer of cheesy crust. I’ll be frying up freshly cut slices, topped with a little extra sauce, cheese, and basil or parsley for that little extra touch. Limited supplies on the maiden voyage, no vegan option, sorry! (I’ll try next year) Includes gluten, dairy, beef, pork.
