How to Make Lasagne - Cooking with Kids

ricotta cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: cream cheese

Cottage cheese is lower in fat and calories.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories while still melting well.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grana padano

Nutritional yeast is a vegan alternative that adds a cheesy flavor.

lasagna sheets

🥗Healthier: whole wheat lasagna sheets

💰Cheaper: regular pasta sheets

Whole wheat adds fiber, while regular sheets are often cheaper.

Wash your hands and gather all the equipment and ingredients.

Put a few spoons of white sauce in the bottom of the baking dish.

Lay some sheets of lasagna pasta on top of the sauce without overlapping them and press to flatten.

Add your favorite filling: spinach and tomato.

Repeat the layers of sauce and lasagna until the dish is full.

Sprinkle with grated cheese and bake.
