Well, I want to start by apologizing to the Italians who see this recipe ... surely they will want to die when they see what we do with something so traditional in Italian cuisine. But I invite you to try it, it is absolutely delicious!
Hello everyone, today we will prepare my father's version of Lasagna, which we have decided to call Rustic Lasagna because of the way he cuts vegetables.
Cooking time depends on how you use the pasta in the lasagna.
Precooked and soft pasta: 10 minutes in the oven preheated to 180 ° C, with heat up and down. Check out our Unique and Amazing Lasagna video to see how we previously soften the pasta.
Raw pasta: 15 to 20 minutes in the oven preheated to 160 ° C with heat down and then 10 minutes at 180 ° C with heat up and down.

3 colored peppers
2 onions
4 garlic cloves
1 large spinach bag (300g)
1 kg of ground beef

1 tablespoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon of cumin
1 jar of tomato sauce for Bolognese (500gr)

Then paint the bottom of a deep mold with a little butter, and begin to assemble the lasagna. First a layer of pasta, meat, eggs, sliced mozarella cheese, a little bechamel sauce and start again, pasta, meat, eggs, cheese and bechamel. Finish with some shredded mozzarella cheese.
