This lasagna recipe is a delicious dish you can make in advance and have for lunch at home or at work. The béchamel with parmesan adds a sophisticated touch. Despite the sauce not being 100% homemade, I hope you’ll like it. If you have more time for cooking, you can follow this tomato sauce recipe that will be the ideal base for your bolognese.
