I wanted lasagna, but I'm on a low carb diet, so instead of lasagna noodles, I used zucchini, sliced the long way and I used the mandolin for nice, even slices. I used my homemade tomato sauce, which is especially deep and rich in flavor. Turned out fantastic.
I made it late last night for serving tonight, as I have the dishwasher repairman and electricians working in the kitchen today. As of now, the dishwasher is in the middle of the room and nothing's fixed yet, but the electricians are pretty sure their part is done.
Pinto, thanks for your input on velveting yesterday. I'll bet your way would be more flavorful than what my recipe told me. Thanks!

(2,016 posts)Yep, I get it, Cher... my kitchen too is filled with appliances in the center of the room. Ugh.
I just got back from the grocery store. I'm going with Thai spicy beef noodle soup tonight. Not exactly pho, so call it faux pho?
sounds yummy to me!

(24,146 posts)chicken boobs were on super sale, so i picked up a big package of those. tonight we're going to grill a few up and serve it over salad. it's 90 degrees and it's too hot to do much else.
