Lasagna

We’re feeling so festive at Chez Sweet Pea, even our dinner is cooking up red and green.  I created this version of Mexican lasagna for a holiday dish that fits in perfectly with your schedule this time of year: It's easy, versatile (you can alter it to your taste or to use the items you have on hand), fairly quick to assemble and can be made ahead of time.  Oh, and did

As I mentioned, I'll be working on recipes for you to use this Thanksgiving. This one is not one of your grandma's recipes.

You know how when the power goes out, you still find yourself trying to turn on the lights? That's kind of how it is when your oven suddenly goes out.

During my recent visit Back East to, among other things, attend my brother‘s wedding, I also stumbled upon a serendipitous epiphany of gourmet delectability. Huh?

Simply Recipes reader Alton Hoover sent me his favorite recipe for lasagna which he has been cooking up since college days. His original recipe created enough lasagna for a small army so I halved it. What is posted here will easily serve 8 people. From what I can tell the secret behind Alton's lasagna is the addition of sugar to the sauce and using about twice as much cheese as most other recipes.

Ah…ubiquity; allow me to perpetuate it. So perpetuate it I shall! It really isn’t copying, copy-cat-ing, or stealing, or whatever. What this is, is, depending on what your definition of is, is, is, cooking a dish that, in one way, shape, or form, has been spotted all over the blogosphere. It is, in my mind, similar to the eloquently described traffic reports on the radio by the late Keith Kalland, the “ubiquitous ladder in the road", for our Atlanta rush hour. No matter what day your are traveling, no matter where you are on the road, if it is morning in the ATL, there is a friggin’ ladder in the road somewhere! And, believe me, there was. The thing is, about this dish, despite its appearance in many a blog, the dish itself was as uniquely created as the blog o

From Guest Reviewer Of The Month: John Rattray :   Robert Anton Wilson once wrote that the Celtic temperament when not sunk in Beckett-like despair always leaps to the other conclusion and believes, whatever the evidence, that tomorrow will be better.     From Friday Talking Points [23]   As Robert Anton Wilson pointed out (or William S. Burroughs, if you prefer), hexagram 23 of the I Ching is "breaking apart." Anyone who subscribes to his "23 enigma" theory will note that this is the twenty-third installment of this column. If you throw hexagram 23, the I Ching cautions: "the roof is shattered, the house collapses." I leave you, dear reader, to draw your own conclusions as to how this relates to Democratic politics for this particular week...

Can you believe that we're already finishing up Taste & Create 5? That's nuts!! I can't believe that time has flown so quickly! Quickly and tastily!!This time around, the lovely Nicole paired me with the much-loved Dolores of Chronicles of Culinary Curiosity! I enjoy her blog because I feel like she lets you in, shares about herself in a way that you long for more...

(That, and she's darn funny!!)I went back months and months of Dolores's blog.

By: Jane Simmers Looking into trying out a vegetarian diet and worried that there might not be any tasty recipes to satisfy your palate? Well, you may be surprised to find out that anything that you can cook with meat can be cooked with vegetables. This even includes your Italian favorites like pizza and pasta. So before you give up on trying to be a vegetarian, look into this vegetarian lasagna recipe first and see if it works for you.Step 1First thing you will want to prepare is the ingredients. For a healthy vegetarian lasagna recipe, you will need 1 fresh eggplant, 1 pack of frozen spinach, 1 pack of lasagna noodles, 1 pack of low-fat cottage cheese, 1 jar of meatless sauce, one pack of mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper, some tomatoes, and parsley flakes. Remember that the mozzarella cheese must be light and as non-fattening as can be. These ingredients can all be found in your local supermarket.Step 2What you will want to do next for the vegetarian lasagna recipe is defrost the p

One of my first exposures to cheese and tomatoes, besides in a sandwich, was the Vegetarian Lasagna, a scrumptous, rich dish with a thick gravy and cheese flavored heavily with Italian herbs and layered with veggies and noodles. This was such a lovely way to enjoy the noodles that I instantly became a fan. So this thanksgiving, I thought I'd share with you this vegetarian main course that you and your guests would absolutely enjoy! Plus, it's so easy to tweak the basic recipe to add your choice of vegetables or meat and turn this into one of your favorites! Spiced with oregano, basil, thyme and parsely, this dish is a classic combination of noodles and veggies accentuated by the tomato sauce and cheese, and the mushrooms with Pesto take it to another level! Surely fit for a festive occasion, this Vegetable Lasagna will definitely bring an appealing taste to your palette!Ingredients4 long lasagna noodlesNonstick cooking spray1/2 cup chopped onion1 tspn dried oregano1 tspn dried basil1

Increíble de rica, para los amantes de la pasta hecha en casa no debéis perderos esta exquisitez, igual no está muy bien que yo os lo diga, lo que intento como mi sensaciones me permiten es transmitiros los sabores...y eso es de complicado!Como dato curioso os diré que el propio Cicerón muestra su pasión por el "Lagum" que eran tiras de pasta largas. Ya en esa época los romanos desarrollaron maquinas para la elaboración de la Lasaña.Hasta el siglo XVII lo mas posible es que no apareciera un plato de lasaña al horno similar a los nuestros. Ingredientes:Pasta hecha en casaRelleno:3 cebollas1/2 kg de carne picada mezclada1/2 lata de foié de pato500 ml de salsa casera de tomatePreparación:Sofreímos a fuego muy lento las cebollas en un dedo de aceite de oliva virgen, muy picadas.Cuando estén totalmente transparentes añadimos la carne, rehogamos muy bien y dejamos a fuego vivo para que se consuma el agua que suelta, bajamos el fuego de nuevo y dejamos que se sofría bien, aña

Just like Garfield, I love Lasagna. Layers of cheese, sauce, meat and pasta stack up to make a classic Italian specialty. No one would dispute the fact that lasagna is one of the most recognizable Italian dishes. In doing some research, I found that a recipe for lasagna was printed in a 14th century British [...]

Thanksgiving Pumpkin Lasagna is an excellent vegetarian fall casserole. It also makes a beautiful presentation and is relatively easy to prepare.My good friend John emailed this recipe to me. At first I kind of wrinkled my nose... pumpkin? In lasagna? That didn't sound too appetizing, at least not to my "very-slowly-evolving-frugal-foodie" palate.Then, I thought... Hey, why not? I mean heck, I had pumpkin puree that I had frozen last year, and I really needed to use that stuff... I mean how long are you supposed to freeze pumpkin puree anyway? Probably not from one Thanksgiving to the next, but we'll pretend it wasn't that long!The recipe also called for spinach... and I'm all about some spinach, especially if I can find a way to get my picky husband to eat it. I'm also trying to incorporate more vegetarian meals into our weekly menu. I mean seriously, especially in our American diet, we could all use a couple more servings of vegetables a week!So we made John's Pumpkin Lasagna.

We're pretty gutsy around here when it comes to cooking/eating. I hardly ever follow a recipe exactly as it was written. This has apparently worn off on my husband. He has 1 dish that he can make....microwave chicken with cream of mushroom soup. He just doesn't really enjoy cooking.Lunch was interesting today.Clif has an office in the house. Most days he doesn't even get to go to his office because he's out making sales calls. In Atlanta traffic that can mean long days. On the days that he's at home I never know when he's coming up for lunch. Lunch time depends on how busy things are. This translates into him fixing his own lunch when he's here.Today he came up to eat about the time I was feeding the kids so we got to witness him fixing lunch. (He's not gonna like this post. But it makes me laugh.)Most days he fixes a salad and/or a sandwich. He's not a soup person, but he's a big pasta person. Today he had a craving for pasta. I didn't have any kind of pasta in the house ex

Up until a few years ago I had never made lasagna.I would order it occasionally at restaurants and have it at dinner parties or what have you,but I had never attempted to make it from scratch.Then I had homemade lasagna at my friend Natalia's home and I was hooked.I got the recipe from her and the rest is history.My 14 year old loves it.He rarely requests food,but lasagna and dorito chicken casserole are the two that he repeatedly asks for.Leftover lasagna is soooo good.Anyway,this recipe calls for ricotta and cottage cheese.Love it.And as for the meat sauce,I leave that up to you.I can homemade marinara sauce, so that is what I use.I brown about 1 pound of ground beef (or turkey) and add one chopped onion and 3-4 cloves of minced garlic.I then use a can of marinara and add a few teaspoons of italian seasoning.You can use bottled sauce or make your own.this recipe isn't very time consuming as you might think.Comfort food at its best.Homemade Lasagnacourtesy of Natalia Sciatti IN

The August 2007 edition of Wired magazine arrived in my mailbox today. As I was flipping through the pages, I spotted a headline that I thought said "How to Layer Proof Your Email". I thought what an important topic - seriously. How many of us are caught in a cycle of "RE's" that never ends? If you use Gmail, then it can be even worse. You don't have to worry, Google does it for you.When I settled in to read this very short bit, it turns out the title is "How to Lawyer Proof Your Email" which is a completely different thing (pg 108). Granted, it may even be more important but it was not what I was looking for. It's good advice: The less you do in writing, the less they can pin on you later.Nevertheless, what about the problem of email layering?

I was sifting through my recipe files and found this recipe from real simple. I had all the ingredients on hand so I decided to give it a try.It was so easy and fast. I used small frozen ravioli, my homemade canned marinara sauce and parmesan, mozzarella and fontina cheese.It was excellent.And the boys inhaled it.Super kid friendly,even with the spinach.Although Boy#2 picked out some of his spinach.But Boys #1,3 and 4 gobbled up all of it, spinach included. I will put this one in my staple recipe folder.Great for game nights.Took about 5 minutes to put together and 35 minutes to bake.Can't beat it.Last-Minute Lasagnafrom Real Simple Magazine 1 24- or 26-ounce jar pasta sauce1 18-24-ounce refrigerated large cheese ravioli1 10-ounce box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and excess water squeezed dry1 8-ounce bag shredded mozzarella1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated ParmesanHeat oven to 350° F.Spoon a thin layer of sauce over the bottom of a 9-by-9-inch or 11-by-7-inch 2-quart baking dish.

I am still into eating less meat and it is going pretty well so far. Today I made a aubergine lasagna. In the tomato sauce I replaced the minced meat with blended beans and I put fried aubergine sticks on every other layer. It tasted great.

So laugh if you must! I am posting a lasagna today! Yet another fattening Italian dish for this gluten free mommy. I take a lot more pride in my lasagna recipe than I did in my pre- gluten-free days. Thanks to Tinkyada pasta and a homemade sauce, my lasagna is better [...]

Lasagna is a classic Italian dish. This is a very easy version with spinach as an added ingredient for color and taste. During the process it is all the colors of the Italian flag!

The nice thing about Lasagna other than its lure to commit deadly sin #2 is that its very easy to make an outstanding dish of it, you just need a good recipe. Here’s why. Generally speaking a successful effort in the kitchen requires 3 things- A good plan (recipe, imagination, etc) Using the best ingredients you can reasonably/affordably obtain Proper execution So assuming you have a good recipe (we do) and you get good quality ingredients it comes down to execution and if you can brown meat, cut vegetables and beat an egg you can make an outstanding lasagna. While the bread dough for the Italian Herb Bread was rising and the sauce for the lasagna was simmering and before I had the momentary lapse of reason I thought I’d learn a little about Lasagna. The most disturbing thing I learned was the original root word meant ‘chamber pot’ and the funniest thing I learned was that the British and Italians have been scrapping over who can lay claim to the first Lasagn

Watched Amelie last night, I enjoyed her delight in the simple pleasures of life. Tonight, Bryon (who loves mushroom almost as much as monkeys) and The Boy will filter the Sauvignon Blanc, and I always feel compelled to cook something hearty for them. Working outside in the cold, for long hours, after a long day at work, surely deserves a wonderful treat to look forward to for dinner.

When I saw this in the February 2007 issue of Ladies' Home Journal, I just had to share. Instead of using pasta noodles, it uses egg wrappers (the picture, not from LHJ, shows traditional noodles). I love anything that uses roasted veggies, so I'm dying to give this recipe a try even through it's a bit labor intensive. Best of all - it only has 9 Weight Watchers Points per serving! It's a bit high in calories and fat grams, but with all the fiber from the vegetables, it turns out to be worth the effort. With a salad and a glass of seltzer or wine, it would a perfect winter meal. Enjoy! Roasted Vegetable Lasagna Source: Ladies' Home Journal Makes 4 servings Prep: 1 hour Start to Finish: about 2-1/4 hours, plus cooling Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus additional oil for brushing 6 large garlic cloves, unpeeled 2-3/4 pounds butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded 10 ounces mushrooms, quartered 3 shallots, finely chopped 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves

I think everyone in the world has their own lasagna recipe; this particular recipe has at least one ingredient that is not presently available - so far as I know right now. BUT , you can make your own - the recipe is at the end. Spice Islands had a Spaghetti Sauce Seasoning (1) that makes good sauce better; a great sauce, incomparable! They stopped making it a few years back. They got so many requests for it, that the company started making it again for a while; then once again, stopped production. I bought a case of the jars when I was emailed that it once again would go out of production. The Spaghetti Sauce Seasoning, combined with Spice Islands Italian Herb (still in production) is a match beyond your wildest tastes. This a VERY large recipe for a 12” x 18” x 3” pan. It will feed at least 10 people - and maybe more. It freezes well if you have leftovers. The recipe can be cut in half for a smaller portion. Ingredients: 4 TBS quality olive oil4 Large garlic cloves2 medium

After a long and tiring day, we decided to treat ourselves with a flavorful mouth-watering meat lasagna last night. Nope, we usually do not make the lasagna from scrath because of all the mind-boggling ingredients and all the works involve for an everyday dinner. We usually have the party size frozen meat lasagna by Stouffer's which cost around $11 to $12 in most groceries here in CA. If
