Loving Carb Loading

I’ve previously shared in our Weekly Meal Planning post on how Kyle does the majority of cooking in our family.  However, I do have a really good and easy (very important!) lasagna recipe that I originally got from Kyle’s mom, Mary.  I’ve modified it slightly by using oven-ready noodles, adding Italian sausage and zucchini slices to it. 

This is a really good meal to have almost ready to go when meal prepping for friends and family after baby arrival, surgeries, or other meal-sharing needs.
