I make my white sauce by whisking up quark with a beaten egg, salt n pepper and some mustard powder so it's syn free, then top the lasagne with a healthy extra portion of grated cheese per person/serving. Melting some LowLow spread to turn it into sauce was suggested by someone else on another thread. I think they worked it out the quantity so it was a healthy extra portion per person/serving too and they didn't put any grated cheese on top. It did look nice in their picture but I haven't tried it myself, I just can't imagine not having the grated cheese! Lol! I spose synning the LowLow could be an option tho.... Anyway, hope you get sorted!

Low low with chilly is lovely or the peppercorn(2HEa )
melted with the quark and the egg and then add a HEa of mature light grated cheese this would work out at 3 HEa for 4/6 people depending how hungry they are ?
Or if you are serving something else with it men tend to like SW wedges( as they don't know their SW!) women a bit of salad(talking a size of a normal lasagne )
It's gorgeous and free unless you want to SYN the cheese if so whole dish about 18 Syns but SYN free I Feel cheated! Feel it's a diet meal!!
