I have seen recipes for personal sizes lasagna on several blogs. The recipes all contained ingredients that my husband would not like in his lasagna, so I decided to make up my own version. This recipe has all of the traditional lasagna flavors wrapped up in a cute little package. My husband loved the Mini Lasagnas, and as my official taste tester, he says the recipe is a keeper.
