I love this lasagna. So yummy, the flavor literally explodes in your mouth!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
A gooey, cheesy, and easy lasagna recipe! The homemade sauce is thick, slightly sweet, and a touch spicy. It's the perfect complement to the savory cheesy layer. The heat of the hot sausage in this recipe is totally mellowed by all the other creamy goodness. Easy to follow, anyone can make this and it will be impressive when served. Restaurant quality all the way. We loved this.
