Yesterday, I visited Olive Garden with my mom for a mommy-daughter date. We usually don't go for Italian foods but we decided to try something new. Although, this was my first time at an Italian restaurant I decided to order a tasty looking lasagna. I couldn't help but notice the layers of golden cheese. As I was eating I also noticed many more ingredients like onions, peppers, and beef and realized that they all came from the old world in the Columbian exchange. Cheese and beef are two things that are made from cows who traveled to America from the old world.
- 8 ounces lasagna noodles
- 2 tablespoons salt for cooking water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 16 ounces low fat ricotta cheese
