Lasagna by Rose Fayad

Lasagna is always served at very special occasions, like Christmas and Easter, and always in the dining room. My mother typically accompanies it with sausages and meatballs, artichoke hearts and peas, and a great big green salad. After one bite, my father always says, "Rose, you surpassed yourself dear," and we all agree.
