I read a ton of recipes and then devised my own plan from there. Some call for turkey. I used 1.5 pounds grass fed beef and 1/2 pound Italian sausage. It was heavy on the meat so if you aren't a meat lover use less. Also this is not dairy free. Instead of all the ricotta and mozzarella you use in a normal lasagna this calls for 2 cups Greek yogurt and raw goat cheese. I did not know if raw goat cheese was different than regular so I asked the cheese guy at Whole Foods. Apparently raw goat cheese is unpasteurized and healthier because it contains all the probiotics that would normally be killed in the pasteurization process. FYI they only sell one kind and it very pricey. So you can use regular if you wish.

- 2 squash sliced
- 1 head of broccoli diced
