I love this classic lasagna because it has all the cozy, familiar flavors of the lasagna I grew up with, but it tastes like something you’d get at a fine Italian restaurant. It’s also easier than you’d think, thanks to oven-ready noodles that save time and effort and deliver that delicate texture you’d normally expect from homemade pasta.
