Baked Lasagna

Lasagna is a type of pasta that is long and wide. Traditionally the dough was prepared in Southern Italy according to the information that I’ve read and there are few theories about the origin of lasagna, one of it states that ” that lasagna comes fromGreek  λάγανον (laganon), a flat sheet of pasta dough cut into strips. The word λαγάνα (lagana) is still used in Greek to mean a flat thin type of unleavened bread”.  Wherever it originated, I will always like this delicious dish. Mmmmmmm cheesy and beefy baked lasagna. A special treat that you can serve to your loved ones. In the Philippines, this is how we prepare lasagna.

Ingredients:
1/2 kilo Lasagna noodles ( cooked according to its packaging procedure)
