Recipe for vegetarian lasagna
Delicious, healthy, tasty, and meat-free lasagna.
The dish has plenty of umami flavor and is extremely child-friendly.
We have the recipe from the book: “Green Food for the Whole Family“, written by Lisbeth Østergaard & Louisa Lorang.
They say the following about the recipe:
“Lasagna is always a hit at home. Here in a veggie version with pasta sheets. It could actually also be in a meat version with thin slices of vegetables instead of lasagna sheets.”
