QUINCY (CBS) – It started with lasagna dinners for friends, mostly restaurant workers, who lost their jobs due to the pandemic.
When Nicky Bandera started Project Paulie on March 24, she originally thought she would make 20 lasagna dinners. She was far off. Nine months later, she’s helped distribute 2,500 meals to those in need.
“My family owns an Italian deli on Cape Cod. I kind of grew up whenever there were issues you would bring people food,” Bandera said.
“We were making them all out of our house,” she said. “We were waking up at 5 o’clock in the morning every day. Making fresh sauce. Fresh lasagna. Because for us- we were like if we’re going to do this, we’re going to do it the way we would cook it for our family.”

I buy them on special.
One of my all time favorite shows.
You sound like Lt. Monahan or Dr. Astin.
LOL!
Costco’s frozen lasagna is pretty good.
You about have to find them on special. There isn’t much in the package, even the large size. Still worth the convenience, though. My mother always said if you find a convenience product that you like, go for it. Rhodes frozen bread doughs also work for me.
Never been in a costco.
If it was like my wife’s which is awesome but huge and I received one in March I’d still have left overs.
The best one had a mix of ground beef and ground spicy Italian sausage.
The other one, which turned out OK, had sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, squash, and red peppers.
vegan, throws a wrench in the whole deal. I demand Italian sausage!
I am not vegan but lasagna made with morel mushrooms. mmmmmm
Compared to homemade lasagna, Stouffer’s is not that good. But compared to almost every other TV dinner, Stouffer’s lasagna is tres magnifique!
That was our Christmas dinner this year, & yes, it was pretty good.
