Experiment 9 - The Selection


Crazy busy with work these days, so not a lot of intro in this post.  This week brings another undated clipping with no other identifying information (although I can assume it's from that same newspaper); just the name . . .

Vegetable Lasagna
2 eggs
2 cups low-fat cream-style cottage cheese
1 15 ounce carton reduced fat ricotta cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons dried italian seasoning, crushed
2 tablespoons margarine
2 cups slice fresh mushrooms
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 to 1 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/4 cups skim milk
2 10-ounce packages frozen chopped spinach or broccoli, thawed and well drained
1 medium carrot, shredded
3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
Salt to taste
9 oven ready lasagna noodles
2 cups shredded part-skim mozarella cheese
3/4 cup bottled marinara sauce

Makes 12 servings.  (12?  TWELVE?  Yeah, no.  Well, it does mention freezing leftovers, so we'll see.)

From the ingredients, I'm going to guess this came from a "eating light" type column, but as I said, there's nothing to identify this clipping at all.

Nothing that seems unobtainable in the ingredients list, and since I'm in love with Trader Joe's Marinara sauce, I already have several jars on the shelf, so I have that covered.

For the lasagna noodles, I might go to the new pasta shop I found out about last week, due to our local cash mob organization.  If I have time to get down there, otherwise I'll see what kind of "fresh" pasta is available closer to home.
