Lasagna

Lasagna

By Tina Cusker, Owner of La Cuisine

Are winter weather blues getting you down? How about we stay indoors and get cookin'! Let's take advantage of the cold temperatures to heat up our kitchens, stock up our freezers, and make Tina Cusker's lasagna recipe. Tina, owner of La Cuisine and our very own Mountain Maven uses simple and traditional ingredients such as soft lasagna noodles and flavorful ground beef in her lasagna. Non-traditionally, she adds a unique mixture of gooey cheeses. Since few things match the delightful scent of a lasagna simmering in the oven, let's roll up our sleeves and get cooking!

Casserole/Main Dish

One of the most incredible things about this lasagna recipe is its adaptability! You can err on the side of tradition with an all-beef filling or even develop a richer flavor by adding some sausage. Should you choose to incorporate fresh herbs and spices, you will add a pop of brightness and increase nutrition. Or, you can choose to double your batch to freeze for future suppers. So, gather your ingredients, put on your apron, and whip up a satisfying and plentiful meal, perfect for feeding the entire family now and in the near future!
