Stouffer’s has a question for us, “Lasagna = cake”? What do you think?
According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, a cake is “a breadlike food made from a dough or batter that is usually fried or baked in small flat shapes and is often unleavened.” So, according to that definition, the answer is yes.
But that is all technical; we want the emotional answer. And I say yes because it makes me as happy as a cake does. It has layers like a cake; the pasta is the cake, the meat and ricotta are the filling, the cheese is the frosting, and the tomato sauce is the fruit topping.
So if Shepperd’s Pie is a pie, then lasagna is a cake.
What do you say? And who else is craving lasagna???
