Hidden Beef & Pork Veggie & Black Bean Lasagne
with Parmesan Cheese
Construction is key when making a good lasagne but maybe more importantly is what you pack in. Lay a sheet of lasagne and begin adding the rich tomato sauce dotted with hidden sautéed veggies. Then another lasagne sheet and more sauce and more and more! Don’t forget the Parmesan to give this meat-free marvel extra oomph.
We’ve replaced the lentils in this recipe with black beans due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!
