Outstanding Northern Italian Lasagna image

Northern Italian Lasagna is usually a bit different than the Sicilian Lasagna we are accustomed too. No Ricotta cheese in this Lasagna. White sauce is used in place of it, with plenty of Mozzarella. This is one of my families all time favorite dishes.I have tweaked,and made this recipe my own through the years. Make this Lasagna...

This lasagna is a great way to use up leftover meat. I always have some leftover ground beef or sausage in the freezer, and this is a perfect recipe to use it up.

This lasagna was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

This lasagna was a disappointment. The sauce was bland, and the cheese was rubbery. I won't be making this recipe again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my lasagna didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The sauce was a bit too watery, and the cheese didn't melt properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
