Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings. You can use any type of meat, seafood, or vegetables that you like. Some popular fillings include spinach, mushrooms, and zucchini.
Make sure to use a good quality cheese. The type of cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your lasagna. Use a cheese that melts well, such as mozzarella or cheddar.
