its a white sauce used as a base for lots of other sauces, or it can be used to make a dish a little thicker and richer.

mmmm lasagna, though 🙂

i grilled some chicken this evening, turned out awesome.
 
Looks good but I hate when recipes say stuff like "1 tsp Italian Seasoning"
Just tell me the ingredients you want already.

There is a product called "Italian Seasoning" that comes in a jar.

Look for it where other spices are sold.

Which means "herbs of the area"....I've never had anyone tell me what area they're referring to...but it's somewhere over there.

I'm confused, I thought it was referring to the actual area of Provence in France, where that mixture originated. I may be wrong though.

yep. Text. The standard mix was invented in the 1970s, but the basic idea is from herbs traditionally used in Provençal cooking.
 
OP, when making lasagna I usually end with sauce. It insures that top layer of noodles is submerged and does not get hard and crispy from baking. Then I top with more cheese about 5 minutes before removing from oven, this keeps the cheese from crisping.

except for replacing the ground beef with spicy ital sausage. the sweet/ spicy mix makes a tasty lasagne.

this is very true. and parmesan makes a tasty crust if you let it brown on the top. make sure youo let some sauce in on the sides of the pan too, many times if the sauce isnt close to the edges it makes the noodles hard and chewy at the outside of the pan.
