My love affair with lasagna runs far back and despite the fact I am of Scottish origin and this is the season of turkey and ham, I felt compelled to speak of my love.
Whether you are a meat, Florentine or even vegan Lasagna person, is there anything better?
Now some pizza folks will argue with me.
And yes, I know they both have a delicious carb base. They have red sauce goodness and bubbly cheese. Plus most add some form of 'topping' or filling.
So what sets lasagna apart? Is it the ricotta cheese?
On its own, ricotta is kind of... well... disgusting. I mean, how many people just dip their finger into the ricotta and go 'yum.' But some how that ricotta once baked into its proper place in the lasagna structure simply sings!
Still some may argue against even the mighty ricotta.
So to you folk who are still cheering on pizza, let me ask you this one simple question.
How many pieces of pizza to you have to eat to feel full? For me, at least 3-4.
But with Lasagna... Ah... one heavenly square of that hearty casserole and I am in tummy-full heaven.
How about you? Lasagna or Pizza. Comment on your fav below!
Because there is no in between!

I think that is what so great about lasagna, it can get really versatile that you can adjust it according to personal preferences. For one, I have a daughter who's really into veggies while my twin boys are both meat lovers. Good thing I got tons of lasagna recipes for them, :)
ReplyDeleteI am a lasagna fiend!! I adore it more than any other food ever! I'm a vegeterian and I still make lasagna all the time. Oh so good.
ReplyDeleteLove Lasagna, made it last night for dinner, not home made of course, boxed, I'm lazy. LOL. One usually fills me up but I grabbed two yesterday for the heck of it. I do eat pizza, but if I had a choice between the two - Lasagna!
ReplyDeleteWell, have to be honest. I love pizza. Not that I wouldn't turn away a great piece of lasagna. But would have to choose a slice of sausage pizza over it any day.
ReplyDeleteYou had me at Lasagna. It is all about the yummy ricotta and mozz and sharp cheese. You can never go wrong eating this or pizza. Add a breadstick or two and you have heaven!

ReplyDeleteHands down. And I found a crock pot recipe that involves throwing everything in there and leaving it all day. Heaven and fast...
Pizza is great, but it doesn't hold a candle to Lasagna.
