Sausage and Veal Lasagna




This lasagna recipe has been marked to try for a while now, after reading all the raving comments I thought it wouldn't hurt to try a new recipe other than the one I always make. Since I am cleaning out my freezer supply, I had some Italian sausages in there and was recently sent some Strauss brand veal for review (review here), I decided to use them up for this recipe.

I slightly adapted the ingredients here, than what they had posted. I used Strauss free raised ground veal instead of ground beef and regular Italian sausage instead of sweet, dried herbs, left out the fennel and used a whole small onion. The directions would be the same as they have written in the link below, just with my minor adaptations.

  2. Looks fantastic! For sausage next time you may want to look into Original Brat Hans. Theirs are all natural with no preservatives, antibiotics or added hormones:)
