The lasagna is a typical dish of Italy with many traditional recipes in all regions. Today we are proposing a version with peppers, a very delicate taste with a sweetish aftertaste. You can vary the recipe by replacing the mozzarella with the Besciamella sauce made in house, or add other vegetables to enrich it. This dish is ideal as a first course for the Sunday lunch, or to do to enjoy a dinner with friends, accompanied by a good white wine with fruity flavors.
