  • ———The Script———
  • Heat oil in a pot – not just any pot, the pot of dreams.
  • Add our hero (the beef), onions, and garlic. Cook till it’s as brown as a beach tan.
  • Enter stage left: add the pasta sauce, chicken broth, and a medley of tomatoes, and herbs. They're like the ensemble cast in a musical – each adding their unique note.
  • The twist? Add the broken lasagna noodles because life's too short for perfection.
  • Let it simmer (for at least 30 minutes). Good things take time, like binge-watching your favorite show.
  • Add the cream and basil – think of it as the grand finale in a fireworks display.
  • Top with cheese. Because cheese is the fairy dust of the food world.
