Lasagna, the super tasty Italian dish, and you can make many variants. This variant with smoked chicken and mascarpone tomato sauce is delicious creamy and extra delicious by the spinach.
We eat at least once a week a recipe from the Italian kitchen. Minimal, because I'm quite fond of it. Luckily for me, there are more people (unlike Indian curries) who like Italian food.
What I like a lot is homemade lasagna. Of course the original with Bolognaise sauce is delicious. The recipe I have therefore previously blogged here.
But this variant I bake a lot too. Delicious salty chicken, combined with creamy mascarpone and spinach.
A whole different flavor and just as tasty. Of course I share that recipe also with you. I hope you find it just as tasty!
