CLASSIC LASAGNA | RECIPES | WW USA



Classic lasagna | Recipes | WW USA image

Sink your teeth into this gooey version of meat lasagna. It's rich and flavorful, good enough to be called a classic. If you prefer your cheese nice and browned, place under broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute after baking. Tomato paste is the secret to the sauce’s robust flavor. You can you use the variety that comes in a tube but if you use the canned version you might have some leftover. Spoon any remaining paste by the tablespoon onto a baking sheet and freeze. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag and store in the freezer to keep on hand for your next recipe.
