Ingredients:
500g (1 pound) pre-cooked lasagna noodles

100g (3 ounces) Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt, to taste

3 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream

Method:
Pre-heat oven to high.
Bring the butter to melt in a pot, season with salt and pepper and let it boil a little. Add flour and mix well. Add milk very carefully, little by little, mixing not to make “grains.”
Mix all the time until it begins to cream.
Separate some mozzarella slices to finish the lasagna. The rest of the cheeses should be chopped.
Add cheeses to the white sauce and let melt. Take the sauce out the heat, add cream and mix well.

Fourth, a layer of lasagna noodles
And so on until finishing the sauce. Over the last layer, spread the mozzarella slices.
