LET’S TALK INGREDIENTS AND SUBSTITUTES – SHALL WE?
Penne – Well I’m using penne but ideally any of your favorite cooked pasta works. If you have left over pasta in the fridge it’s ideal. If I’m using fresh cooked pasta I cook the pasta a bit less – so instead of 11 minutes I cook it for only 9 minutes. But again you can bake it as per package directions and it works just as well.
Tomato Sauce – Today I’m using left over of my basic homemade tomato sauce, sometimes I use a meat sauce too. You can even use store bought if you don’t have any at home.
Bechamel – this is by far the easiest sauce you can make. It takes just five minutes. And it’s easier than you think. Bechamel is usually with cheese too but since I’m grating Parmesan cheese on top of the lasagna I’ve not used the Parmesan in the bechamel sauce. That’s why it’s optional in this recipes.
Cheeses – Today i’m using Parmesan – I love the nutty flavor it brings. We love cheddar but you can use any cheese that works great for baking like Emantle or Gouda works too. And of course Mozzarella for that ultimate cheesy topping.
