Veggie Lasagna, all set for the freezer
My family loves this lasagna, its easy to make and delicious to eat. There is no need to cook the noodles beforehand! Moisture from spinach and other ingredients does it for you.
This is a great recipe to prepare ahead and freeze. When you’ve got one of those crazy busy days, pop it into the oven and dinner is on it’s way.
