A green salad
Sometimes, wedges or chips - but I was told pasta and potatoes is generally considered a no no ... |

Red wine
![]() Sometimes salad and garlic bread as already suggested but I usually can't be bothered. A good lasagne is good enough on its own! |

I'd go for salad and garlic bread too..... yum yum!!! Although if you are trying to be healthy forgo the bread and just make a nice green salad!

I think chips go nicely too, as do vegetables - but I guess you could just have it on it's own!

Usually just a really nice mixed salad with a home made vinagrette, but sometimes a chunk of good ciabatta goes down nicely too. I'd definitely avoid anything potato based, it'd be far too stodgy!

What about red onion, carrot, parsnip, leek, turnip etc drizzled with olive oil and cracked black pepper and roasted in the oven. You could try it next time.

Lasagne are an almost complete meal by themselves - meat and cheese give proteins, and the pasta provides long-term sugars (carbohydrates, sorry, I'm not sure about the spelling of it.....
). Tomato also provides a bit of vegetable quality. In Italy, some restaurants will not even provide bread if you order lasagne, for this specific reason.If you follow a nutritional table, you should only add a salad or a plain vegetable. Shredded carrots with balsamic vinegar, sautečd peas, a mixed salad. You should also add fruit at the end of the meal to make it FULLY complete. |

The only thing I think it needs, as has been said, is a crunchy green salad (not that it needs it, but just to cleanse the palate). Or possibly some grilled or boiled courgettes.
