EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Vegetarian lasagna made with cheese provides an excellent source of protein and calcium.

Lasagna or casseroles prepared with dry, uncooked pasta have a slightly drier texture than those made with cooked pasta.

Prepare the lasagna up to 24 hours in advance. Cover with foil as directed and refrigerate until ready to bake. Bake lasagna as directed in recipe.

Serve this lasagna with whole grain rolls and your favorite tossed salad.

I think this recipe was in one of the Pillsbury recipe magazines, but now I've lost that page. Didn't this recipe originally have a simple homemade white sauce, rather than the jar of alfredo? That lasagna was so good...not too crazy about the Alfredo.
