Grandma Guarnaschelli's Lasagna with Mini Beef Meatballs
Instructions
Cook:1h
I did not grow up with an Italian grandmother who was always around the house cooking. I saw her only on special occasions--but then she would cook everything under the sun. Even as a kid, I was so impressed that she went to such painstaking trouble to roll and brown little meatballs and layer them throughout her lasagna. It's worth it. When making classic lasagna bolognese, the ground beef and tomato meander beautifully together, but there is something about getting a bite of beef in a little meatball and then the separate sensation of the tomato sauce that makes the flavors pop even more.
