A Green Veggie LASAGNA
I’ve been making this lasagna for years. This is one of Paul’s favorite vegetarian dishes that I make. It is a bit laborious but well worth it! The magic to this recipe is the "green filling” which is just made of veggies. It is a fantastic dish for leftovers, I love to add an egg the next day. If you have extra “filling” it is great to add to scrambled eggs the next day too. Hope you enjoy!
