My mom made this lasagna for special occasions, such as birthdays. When she passed, I inherited her cookbooks-tucked inside one of them, I found this recipe folded into a letter she wrote to me while I was stationed overseas. It's a hearty, rich dish that reminds me of home. -Janet Wing, Minot, North Dakota
