I wasn’t offended, I honestly thought you were. Lol
The thing is the lasagna we have here is not even the original recipe created by the Italians in the 1200’s. Like everything else, we Americans have bastardized the dish.
The traditional lasagna alla bolognese is a first course consisting of layers of thin pasta dough made with flour, egg and spinach; between each layer are ragù sauce and béchamel. The top layer is lightly sprinkled with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese; the preparation is then baked.
I>I’m sure it turned out great with the cheddar, and if u have kids I’m sure they loved it!
It is good with the cheddar, please try it sometime and let me know what you think. I do have kids, although they are all grown now, but my step-daughter and my 2 year old grandson are living with us for the time being and the kids eats cheese like there is no tomorrow. It’s actually a wonder I had enough cheese to make this.
First don’t follow the instruction on the lasagna noodle boxes, if you want my recipe just ask. It’s better imho.
Second don’t use the ready to bake lasagna noodles, they don’t cook right, the texture is very dry making the pasta crunchy as well as making the lasagna very bland.
Remember don’t expect it to taste like frozen lasagna from the store, it may take a little longer due to prep time, but at least you know exactly what’s in it and you don’t have to worry about freezer burn or worry about it defrosting and being refrozen which alters the taste quite a bit.
The dish in the picture should be classified as Lasaga, not Lasagna! le-sog-nah
You are obviously critical of my cooking to the point of being offended for some reason.
What was done wrong with this lasagna that offends you so much? Was it because I used a different cheese? Or something else?
All in good fun, I apologize if I offended you.
I’m sure it turned out great with the cheddar, and if u have kids I’m sure they loved it!
LASAGA was a reference to Garfielf

I’ve never made lasagna, but I think I will in the near future. I’ll make half with mozzarella and half with cheddar to easily compare and contrast.
I would suggest two things.
First don’t follow the instruction on the lasagna noodle boxes, if you want my recipe just ask. It’s better imho.
Second don’t use the ready to bake lasagna noodles, they don’t cook right, the texture is very dry making the pasta crunchy as well as making the lasagna very bland.

DM ME THAT RECIPE! I’ll be hitting the store in a few days. Always need stuff to spice up the meal rotation
Will do. You’ll have by this afternoon
