This recipe needs a teeny bit of tweaking, but makes a lovely, easy-to-put together meal. The sauce need some adjustment, though, as it is just too thin, and makes a bit too much. 5 cups of liquid is just too much for this roux. I tried thickening it with a cornstarch and water mixture, but it still didn't get to where I wanted it, and I didn't want to add too much cornstarch. I'll definitely need to play with the sauce. I used a 13x9x2-inch lasagna pan, and the sauce was overflowing. I made this even easier by using microwave steamable broccoli and microwave steamable ravioli! Easy peasy! Made for Fall PAC 2012.
