I'm a big fan of pasta and this recipe might just be one of my favorites. I like it because I can take advantage of the sheets of lasagna I have in the cupboard. I fill them with an exquisite mixture that uses ground beef as the main ingredient. To make this dish even more delicious, combine Bolognese sauce with béchamel sauce. Serve fresh out of the oven with a green salad. Be sure to take advantage of the delicious sauce by serving with pieces of bread.
