Veggie Lasagna
Lasagna is a classic Italian dish, which often includes meat in its many layers of pasta. However, veggie lasagna is easy to make and is an excellent vegetarian option. At Giolitti Deli, our veggie lasagna comes with mushrooms, zucchini, and spinach, along with several mouthwatering cheeses: fresh ricotta, parmesan, and mozzarella.
