View ProfileAs a chef, Chris really loves making lasagnas. He says, “They truly are an expression of love”, and this one is will make meat lovers rejoice. He makes his bolognese in the classic style by slow cooking beef, sausage, and ground pork along with onion, carrots, celery, garlic, tomato, white wine and stock. Once simmered to perfections, the bolognese is layered up with fresh pasta, house-made roasted tomato sauce, béchamel, and fresh basil to complete this masterpiece of chef love. This meal does well in both the microwave or the oven, just depends on if you prefer the cheese on top more on the crispy side. A tip from Chef Chris: if you go the oven-route, microwaving it for two minutes first cuts down baking time significantly.
