This is a recipe for a traditional Lucchese Lasagne from Lucca Tuscany Italy.

Its important to get as much of the ingredients as fresh as you can, one big tip is the Olive Oil as it is healthy and a real genuine dressing which is found in most recipes. Buy the best you can get you will notice the difference.

We hope you enjoy this and feel free to ask any questions.
