People are outraged by womans healthy lasagna recipe: Someones nonna needs to smack you for this

A woman is getting slammed online for the unusual way in which she made a lasagna.A traditional Italian lasagna is made a specific way — with lasagna noodles, meat sauce filling and ricotta cheese.

So when one woman online tried making a “healthier” version of it — the internet lost its marbles.A woman named Courtney Knill innocently shared on X (formerly Twitter) a photo of something that resembled the Italian staple in a glass casserole-type dish.The accompanying caption read: “came up with a new recipe that I’m not quite sure what to call, essentially it’s a healthier version of lasagna.”In another Tweet below her original one, she further explained her take on the traditional dish, writing, “I used ground chicken instead of beef, and subbed pasta out for quinoa!”Well, leave it to the ruthless people of the internet to run and explain to Knill that what she did was disgraceful to the entire tri-state area — and Italy.
