A Lesson In Lasagna

Don't laugh.

I'm Italian....and I've NEVER MADE LASAGNA! Its true. My mom used to always make it and I simply never learned how. Well last week, this all changed. My BFF came over and we made lasagna! Here's the recipe we used:

• 1 package of ground chicken (which was omitted when we made it because I'm a big idiot and can't read properly)
• 2 cans of spinach (I bought frozen spinach instead, much better!)
• 1 jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce
• 1 can of diced tomatoes
• 1 small can of mushrooms
• 1 container of ricotta cheese
• 1 container of cottage cheese
• 1 package of shredded mozzarella
• 1 package of lasagna noodles

I think it turned out well for my first attempt at making it. I'd like to try different ingredients and adding a little more flavor but overall, it was yummy! I probably won't be making it any time soon since I certainly don't need an entire pan of lasagna to myself but it was a good lesson. AND we both wore white shirts to make lasagna. I made it all the way until after we finished eating before getting any on my shirt!

Thanks BFF! Next time I'll make sure to have more wine and a bumper car for ya! That's TWO nights of making dinner in one week--pretty impressive I'd say. This concludes recipe week :)
