Delish! This is comfort food heaven!
There’s nothing quite like the comfort of a well-made lasagna, especially one that borrows from the rich, hearty tradition of Midwestern cooking.
This Ham and Mushroom Lasagna brings together the savory flavors of ham and the earthy notes of mushrooms, layered with gooey cheese and tender pasta.
This dish is perfect for family gatherings, offering a nostalgic nod to simpler times when meals were crafted with love and shared around a lively kitchen table. It’s a wonderful way to use up leftover ham and create something both filling and delicious.
This Ham and Mushroom Lasagna pairs beautifully with a crisp green salad dressed in a light vinaigrette, which adds a refreshing contrast to the richness of the lasagna. Warm, crusty garlic bread on the side will help soak up any extra sauce on your plate. For a touch of sweetness to finish the meal, consider serving a classic Midwestern apple pie or some fresh fruit.
