Lasagna Garlic Bread Bowls
Lasagna Garlic Bread Bowls are a fun twist on traditional lasagna. They are individually sized carb bowls filled with all that lasagna goodness. I think these are a great idea for parties, showers, family get-togethers, etc. I love that portions are already figured out, so if you know how many you need to serve, it’s easy to plan ahead. Another creative lasagna option are my Creamy Pesto Sauce Chicken Lasagna Rollups with Garlic Basil Sauce.
