Basic Lasagna

Recipe #288646 | 1¾ hours | 1 hour prep | add private note

By: Pink Princess

This is my grandmother's recipe - I believe she got it from a magazine many years ago however no one can remember which. Very simple, but excellent. Serving numbers and preparation time are estimates. I don't use the cinnamon or nutmeg, generally use 250g cream cheese and low fat milk. Freezes well.
