My dad just asked me if I remembered his "lasagna" from childhood. How could I forget? The only lasagna I know to have sliced hard boiled eggs in it.... :P

Ok - I have a lasagna-related question!  I'm planning to try a new recipe & it has this bechamel-ey/cheesy sauce as part of it.  Thing is I want to get the whole thing assembled a few hours beforehand, so I just have to put it in the oven at the last minute - bake & serve.  However, if I do this, is the bechamel-ey/cheesy sauce going to get weird or curdley or anything & spoil the lasagna?  Will it be ok to do this?  Etc...

I wouldn't have any concerns doing this with the normal ;), tomatoey-meaty non-bechamel lasagna I usually make...but I'm worried about this.

Any suggestions or advice?  (it's an all veg lasagna recipe)

Nope, bechamal won't go weird if you do it in advance.  I'd just sprinkle some parmesan over it when you bake it so the top crisps up and it should be fine.

Is your veg lasagna white with spinach and such, or does it still have a red sauce base? I always liked Swanson's vegetable lasagna and I'd love a copy cat recipe.
