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 it an extra zap.
