I thought I would give an update on the spinach lasagna I posted a few days ago. I made it for supper tonight and it was awesome. I put the spinach, cheese and all the rest of the ingredients except the noodles together along with two eggs. It was so very good. 1~29~2012
I love spinach lasagne! Fortunately a few of the kids and Bill do too, so we enjoy this at least once a month!!
