INSTRUCTIONS

           CREAM SAUCE:
           CHEESE FILLING:
           OTHER:
To make sauce melt butter with medium heat in heavy, 1 quart saucepan. Add
flour and stir until well-blended; cook until frothy. Add milk, stirring
constantly with wire whisk as mixture comes to a simmer. Cook and stir
until thickened (3-4 minutes). Chill while mixing other ingredients. Drain
and mince tomatoes and garlic. Place other cheese filling ingredients in
3-quart mixing bowl with tomatoes and garlic. Add 1-1/2 cups of cooled
cream sauce and mix until well blended. Refrigerate, reserving 1/2-cup for
later use. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Cool under
cold water and drain. Place 3 lasagna noodles in a 9x13x2 lightly oiled
baking dish, overlapping slightly. Spread 1-1/2 cups cheese filling over
noodles; sprinkle with one cup mozzarella and 1/4-cup fontina cheese.
Repeat pasta and cheese layering three more times; top with remaining three
lasagna noodles. Spread 1/2-cup of reserved cream sauce over top and cover
lightly with foil. Preheat oven to 350~ and bake for 1 hour. Remove from
oven and keep warm at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve topped with
hot marinara and Parmesan cheese. (Can be refrigerated a day before baking
if desired.) Source: Abilene Reporter-News 3/10/94
