Super easy lasagna
Posted in Main dish, tagged lasagna, pasta recipies on October 11, 2015| Leave a Comment »
I’m suddenly surrounded by Cubs fans.

Plus, nobody understands a Cubs fan’s pain quite like a Red Sox fan.
So GO CUBS!
I offered to bring lasagna to the watch party and settled on this super easy recipe because I didn’t have a lot of time in between weekend activities to boil my own noodles and prepare a lot of vegetables.

I know what you are thinking: Stop with the kale recipes already! It’s no longer trendy! I can’t eat anymore! I’ll never like it!
