Or don’t wait and pile it on your plate like a blob!  If you are willing to try a non-traditional lasagna, I think you will like it.  My boyfriend wasn’t crazy about it.  I think he didn’t like the combo of seafood and lasagna, but I thought it was yummy!  Fattening, but yummy!

Add some peas and it’s health food!  Right?!?!
