1 large bottle tomato sauce (or make your own)
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/2 box lasagna pasta

1 yellow onion
3 tblspns olive oil
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup pecorino romano cheese

Dad’s Lasagna
When I was a kid, my dad would ask me every year what I wanted to eat for my birthday dinner. Year after year, it was the same answer: Lasagna! My dad's lasagna isn't like your average lasagna, it's filled with unexpected flavors like salty pesto, creamy ricotta, sweet sausage, and tangy tomato sauce. Fast forward to today when every time I recreate the dish, my boyfriend claims it is, without a doubt, the best thing I make.
