Lasagna with Italian venison sausage


Fresh Venison Italian sausage

what is Italian venison sausage?  Most venison is made into breakfast sausage or jerky.
The Amish made some of the venison into Italian sausage for the many Italian dishes that we love.

Just think of what wild deer eat compared to what feedlot hogs and cattle eat.  Go wild!

The last time I bought ground beef from the store, it was recalled for some sort of organism in it.



Lasagna

homemade Italian tomato sauce with lots of garlic
ground meat of your choice or leave out and add vegetables like sauteed eggplant
Bechamel sauce - made with milk, flour and olive oil - instead of ricotta cheese
fresh winter greens, chopped and steamed
mozzarella cheese, shredded
Parmesan cheese grated
lasagna noodles cooked firmer than usual, because the noodles will cook more in the oven

Layer all and top with the bechamel sauce and sprinkle with cheese.
Bake until a golden crust forms on top.
Allow to settle for ~ 8 minutes before serving.

Serve with a slices of avocado and big glass of red wine.
