Cathy - first of all - enjoy the recipes!

Now about the veggie lasagna - what I do is make my sauce - usually a white sauce, once in a while Alfredo, steam my veggies - onions, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, and make them crisp-tender.

We prefer to use a nice thick white sauce - it doesn't take away from the flavors of the noodles, veggies or cheeses. I hope you at least try it that way.

Mama

Cook my noodles (an if you don't have lasagna noodles you can use any pasta (ziti, rigatoni, etc); flavor my ricotta with salt, pepper, parsley, and grate my Italian cheese(s) - I sometimes use more than one cheese for a nice variety.

Start layering and bake at 350* F.

Well MamaM I did do some excellent meals this weekend! I did make the veggie lasagna (with the thick creamy white sauce with some cheese added) and it came out great & tasty. We had an avacado/tomato salad with the prickly pear salad dressing, well my man could not get over the prickly pear salad dressing he Loved it, and so did I. It really pays to try something different.

Today I made this Roasted Pork that I saw made on Food network, and it was cooked on the grill indirect method and wow~! It was very good and once again I scored a few points with my man:) Had steamed asparagus and zuccini in a rich butter garlic sauce, mashed potatoes, and warm dinner rolls to round out our Sun. dinner! I love cooking and making everything from scratch! I just thank you for all the help, esp. in the veggie realm!
