I learned this lasagna from my mom-in-law. She taught me how to make it. When I was in Accra City, I tried to make on my own. It was successful and She is very proud of me. Lasagna is the meal that we used to prepare often at home in Germany. It is one of the family favorite meals.Notes. Lasagna could be prepared either only with vegetables or only with meat. It is on your preference.

Some people will prefer ricotta cheese over cottage cheese., but I prefer the cottage cheese. Lasagna is like spaghetti in the fact that individual recipes vary so much. I always say, "Try it my way and if you think it lacks something or you dont care for something in it, change it. Tweek it. Make it your own. Own it!"

The best food is tied to memories. In this case, a lasagna I ate in a farmhouse overlooking Florence, on my first (and so far, only ☹️) visit to Tuscany almost two decades ago. I've spent the years since obsessively trying to recreate it. The memory's faded a bit now, but I think the recipe below is pretty darned close.
