Notes

If you prefer a dairy-free option, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and ricotta with cottage cheese. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days, or freeze slices wrapped tightly for up to three months. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing to enhance the flavors and ease serving. Consider garnishing with fresh parsley for added color and flavor!
