Lasagna alla Bolognese with Ricotta
Lasagna alla Bolognese with Ricotta is a more approachable take on this classic Italian dish. Replacing the bechamel or balsamella sauce with whole milk ricotta saves time and effort on one of the trickier elements of the classic recipe. As our Classic Bolognese Pasta Sauce is made with heavy cream, it is very rich and silky, further adding to the creaminess of Lasagna alla Bolognese with Ricotta and complementing the ricotta. Using a mix of six shredded cheeses (Asiago, Fontina, Mozzarella, Provolone, Parmesan and Romano) enriches and enhances the melted cheese component and greatly adds to the overall enjoyment of our Lasagna alla Bolognese with Ricotta. Don’t forget to serve Classic Bolognese Pasta Sauce on the side with Lasagna all Bolognese with Ricotta, accompanied by a Sangiovese for an authentic Italian dinner and perfect for a holiday meal.
