The best lasagna
My mother’s famous lasagna recipe is without a doubt the best lasagna I’ve ever tasted. She learned her ways from her Italian friends when she lived in New York City, adjusting the recipe over the years to perfect it… and every person who tastes her recipe comes back for seconds, thirds and leftovers for the next day!
Look at that cheese!
