lasagna

Lasagna is a classic Italian pasta dish made by layering thin, flat sheets of pasta with a rich mixture of ingredients, typically including meat sauce (ragù), béchamel or ricotta cheese, and melted mozzarella or parmesan. The mental image is a steaming, rectangular slice held together by gooey, bubbling layers of cheese and savory tomato sauce. It is a quintessential "comfort food" often associated with home cooking, family gatherings, and large-scale meal preparation. Because it is time-consuming to assemble, it is rarely considered a quick meal and is frequently served at potlucks or as a hearty weekend dinner.
