bought up all the lasagna noodles?
been to 3 stores at least 2x each over the last couple weeks, including the Italian market.
No damn lasagna noodles? Not even pre-cooked Ronzoni yech.!
I got cans of Red Pack, Galbani ricotta, sausages and eggplant and a nasty hankering for lasagna.
Who bought 'em all up?!
Dammit!

My wife made a lasagna out of large beef ravioli. It turned out quite well. It’s not a 100% convincing lasagna, but it has a strong lasagna aura about it.

I think that's the point tho - it's a LOT more work to make the noodles by hand than spending a couple bucks for a box at the grocery store.
you can skip the boil part if it's too much work....!

I've got three boxes in the fridge in my garage. Maybe I should auction them off on eBay...LOL

There's a certain genius to that! I may try that... layer 'em with mozzarella and sauce. That could be darn good!
