A whole new way to enjoy classic lasagna flavors in a creamy dip. Ground beef and Italian sausage simmer in a seasoned tomato sauce then layered just like a lasagna with spinach and three kinds of cheese. Crusty garlic croutons soak up all the tomato goodness and are sturdy enough for the gooey cheese!
