Lasagna is a classic Italian dish known for its layered structure and rich flavors. It typically includes sheets of pasta, ground meat or vegetables, tomato-based sauce, and a blend of cheeses such as ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Variations may incorporate béchamel sauce or spinach for added texture and nutrients. Originating from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, lasagna is cherished worldwide for its comforting taste and hearty qualities. Nutritionally, it offers protein from meat and cheese, complex carbohydrates from the pasta, and vitamins from tomato sauce and vegetables. However, it can be high in saturated fats and calories, particularly when made with generous amounts of cheese and fatty meats. Health-conscious versions substitute whole-grain pasta, lean proteins, and lower-fat cheeses. Lasagna is a balanced dish when consumed in moderation and paired with lighter sides, making it a beloved choice for indulgence and gatherings.
