So here is what we had for dinner last night. I had never made lasagna before. Assuming it would be way too tricky & time-consuming, I'd resigned myself to a life of mooching off of other people's lasagnas, whenever they happened to make them. But! It's really not that bad! Kyle had made some before and assured me it was do-able, plus we already had a bunch of the ingredients (even real live basil growing in the backyard), and so voila, lasagna. We added mushrooms (because we had them) and a smashed anchovy for umami goodness; used diced tomatoes instead of crushed (because that's what was in the cabinet), cayenne pepper instead of red pepper (same reason), and sliced rather than shredded mozzarella... and didn't really measure very many ingredients. . It worked-- it's yummy and delicious, and now that I've finally finished eating my breakfast, I plan to have some for lunch... once I've waited a respectable amount of time.

As you found out lasagna really is not that hard to make. Mine turns out different every time because I don't use a recipe. Did you use lasagna noodles in addition to the eggplant? I've even substituted eggplant instead of pasta.
ReplyDeleteWe did use lasagna noodles, but more eggplant sounds really yummy!
