klint's homemade lasagna
My son decided to do his own version of homemade lasagna, remembering a time that I had made it when he was little (mine came out of the Better Homes and Garden cookbook from the '70's). He is a great cook and came up with this recipe, then posted it on his facebook page. A lot of people, me included, begged him for a written recipe, which he finally wrote up.
