Mediterranean Pasta With Sausage
A wonderful, easy alternative to lasagna! i can't recall which magazine i discovered this recipe in but the picture is what appealed to me. my kids wrinkled their noses at the idea of spinach but quickly decided it was great anyway! it's very easy to prepare & tastes just as good as a leftover.
