Ok friends. I did it. I really, actually did it. I made a meal almost 100% from scratch - it depends on how nit-picky you want to get. I didn't make the mozzarella cheese, nor did I can my own tomatoes. But otherwise, I didn't open any containers to get the ingredients for my meal. I found a recipe online called "Thousand Layer Lasagna". It involved making your own pasta, so I thought I'd give it a shot. The key is to make paper thin layers of pasta alternating between super thin layers of sauce and cheese.
Sadly, my meat sauce was just WAY to thick and it over-powered the whole dish. The cheese layer was fine, but the pasta sheets were just so thin you could barely tell it was there. So while I don't discourage you from making a thousand layer lasagna (which is a slight exaggeration), I say proceed with caution. Your layers really do need to be thin.
