How about lasagna? Cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, and then shredded cheese......Or hmm........I dont know lol. But yeah, you could do lasagna. You could mix the cottage cheese with ricotta cheese...It makes good lasagna :)

That's a good idea, I've never doen a lasagna. I did do a really cool pasta dish where I made the noodles and infused them with lots of herbs, and then cooked up soem diced chicken, bell pepper, nmushrooms , and onions, smothered it in a rich creamy bechamel sauce and baked with parmesan and bread crumbs on top. That knocked the judges socks off!! I;ll search around for oem good lasagna recipes/

Thanks

Grilled veggie lasagna. *died*

Brush the veggies (yellow squash, green squash, eggplant, mushrooms, sweet red pepper quarters) with olive oil that's been infused with garlic, oregano, basil and a bit of tarragon. Grill until slightly charred and tender. Set aside.

Boil a pound of lasagna noodles, rinse and set aside.

Make your favorite marinara (mine is a couple pounds peeled, seeded diced tomatoes, green peppers, onions, garlic, sauteed in olive oil with a cup of red wine added towards the end).

mix a lb of ricotta with 1 beaten egg, 1 cup mozzeralla cheese shredded and 1/3 cup parmasan cheese grated. Put some sauce in the bottom of the pan (just a small scoop) then a layer of noodles, a layer of veggies, a layer of cheese mix and some sauce. Repeat til it's all gone or the pan is full, ending with sauce. Put sliced mozzeralla cheese all over the top and bake 350 till hot bubbly and golden.

Yum.

It can be frozen before adding the last cheese and kept. *sigh*

Once again, Hedgemom comes through with a fabulous recipe :) I don't have a grill so I suppose using a grill pan OR roasting the veggies would be OK?

Are you taking boarders any time soon? I'm good at cage cleaning ;)

600ml reduced fat milk
75g cheddar cheese grated
75g mozzarella cheese grated

1/4 tsp ground black pepper

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper - optional
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 clove garlic - optional
salt, sugar
1-2 Tbsp breadcrumbs


Directions:
Place penne in boiling water and cook until al dente (slightly chewy to the bite).
Slice tomatoes thinly and sprinkle with salt and sugar and allow to stand.
Sauce: Melt butter, add cornflour, stir for about 3-4 minutes. Add milk a little at a time, add cheese. Stir to get a smooth consistency. Add nutmeg, white pepper and cayenne and stir into the sauce.
Mix the penne and sauce together and pour into the dish.
Place the tomato slices on top with a sprinkling of breadcrumbs, black pepper and extra cheddar cheese.
Bake in a very hot oven or under the grill, long enough to brown the top and warm the tomatoes.

Back in my meat eating days, dreamy spaghetti was a hit around my house too. I used a cup of small curd cottage cheese in place of a cup of cheese. It's a cheap substitute for ricotta cheese.
