VEGGIE GUILT FREE LASAGNE - COOKING WITH FERNE 🥘
If you're looking for a lasagne with a twist and fancy and meat free meal. This recipe is for you, its so moreish and the reason why its guilt free is because instead of using béchamel sauce I used creme fraiche. So it's much lighter and of course it's all about balance, you can have this without cheese or lighter cheese. With this recipe, I also stay away from adding extra oil and salt to make it extra healthy.
