- 6 ounces of mozzarella cheese a creamy and stretchy cheese that melts beautifully and creates a gooey and cheesy layer in your lasagna, adding a mild and milky flavor that complements the other ingredients.
- 1/2 tablespoon of salt enhancing the flavors of the other ingredients and bringing out their natural taste, ensuring a well-seasoned and balanced lasagna.
- 1/2 jar of thick spaghetti sauce a savory and tomato-based sauce that adds depth and richness to your lasagna, providing a tangy and flavorful base for the layers of noodles and cheese.
