The Best Patriotic Dessert Lasagna – You’ll Have No Leftovers Post BBQ

If you’re looking for that perfect 4th of July dessert, I’ve got one that will be a big hit. This is the best Patriotic Dessert Lasagna recipe and you won’t be bringing back any leftovers. Everyone loves the flavors that combine after refrigeration, so it’s ready by the time you serve it.

It’s a great option for a party because it makes such a large tray (like a casserole). You can serve each party guest a square serving of the dessert lasagna. People like the recipe because it’s a light dessert that doesn’t leave you feeling stuffed.

This year, I’m planning to make this lasagna alongside my keto-friendly chicken thighs and mayo-free coleslaw. It’ll be the star of my 4th of July dessert table. If you want easy clean-up, make it in these neat patriotic disposable casserole pans.

You’ll be able to enjoy dessert, clean up quickly and watch the fireworks with your family and friends.
