Beef Lasagna

Had a low key early Christmas party yesterday (Saturday) with the rest of the peeps here in Saigon. Nilo arrived from Manila unexpectedly *wink* so we have decide to make the most of the weekend! It will only be 3 weeks and 2 days until the big day and so we are all excited to be back home for christmas and the wedding too.

I cooked beef lasagna since I promised Paolo that i will make one for him before we leave for Manila. Tet bought in some fried chicken and Tynne chose to have some cakes from Sheraton.

Below is my recipe for beef lasagna. All the while, i thought that it so complicate to make one but, i was wrong!! it was very easy!! try it!



INGREDIENTS: ( there's no exact measurement, i adjust it to my taste)
* 1/2 minced beef
* 500grams pack bacon/ham
* 1 pack ricotta cheese
* 2 eggs
* 1 can tomato in halves
* 2 packs grated mozzarella cheese
* lasagna pasta sheets
* 2 packs spaghetti sauce (i use del monte)
* 1 small pack tomato sauce
