Red Lentil and Spinach Lasagne
An easy-to-make recipe for a variation on vegetarian lasagne. Serves six. Portions can be frozen. You can buy the Bechemel White Sauce ready-made, but I always use Margaret Fullington's recipe, found here: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/26330/bechamel-white-sauce.aspx?o_is=SR Flavoursome, filling, nutritious, and delicious!
