Father's Day comes once a year and this Lasagna Bianca or White Lasagna is definitely a great choice to celebrate the day. A buttery béchamel, lemony ricotta and cannellini beans are sandwiched between layers of pasta, topped with melted mozzarella. It works fine as the only main course, with just a salad needed alongside it. The texture changes with each bite; creamy, a little lemon and some bite from the beans. You begin by making a roux on the stove and adding some milk and cream until you form a béchamel sauce. Also, prepare a mixture of ricotta, parmesan, lemon zest, and parsley. Then proceed to layer the lasagna on a tray: the pasta, ricotta mixture, beans, sauces, cheese, and repeat until the tray is filled. Bake until bubbling and golden; rest a few minutes before cutting into slices. This dish is not just for Father's Day but you can prepare it for Sunday dinners or for a family gathering as well. You can prepare the entire lasagna the night before and refrigerate it until it is ready to bake. Or freeze it unbaked and thaw it overnight before baking. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for several days.
