Sprinkle liberally with cheese or drench in sauce and you can’t be that far from making someone very happy. There’s something subtly elegant about a white lasagna, specked with spinach and mushrooms that jazzes up a boring weekday meal. Paired with a leafy green salad, crusty bread, and a good glass of wine, it’s like you went out but didn’t, ya know?
