Lasagna style
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. In my opinion, this unusual combination of Italian and French cuisine yields an amazing result—lasagna in the style of "Ratatouille"! The dish is juicy, hearty, packed with vegetables and cheese, simply a dream! Be sure to try making it according to my recipe. All the vegetable layers are repeated and alternated with cheese and tomato-meat sauce. The aroma is simply magical. Serve the finished dish at the table.
