WELCOME BACK HUNGRY

I've had a blog before. That was then this is now.
Now I'm hungry and I'm here to tell you all about it.
ENJOY!

I cant make lasagna. I could if they sold that pre-baked lasagna strips here but they don't
and somehow I can never cook them properly and if I do then they tear. So I invented a whole new FAKE-BAKE-LASAGNA. Since it was a hit with my husband I decided to post the steps for anyone else that can't make lasagna.
YUMMERS!


1. Cut 1/2 an onion & 2 garlic cloves.








2. Heat olive oil in a pan and then add the onion. Cook until translucent.







3. Add the garlic. Cook for a 1 more min.







4. Add your ground meat.








These are my seasonings. Add whatever you like most.






5. Remove the fat.







6. Add two cans of tomatoes. Water and all.








7. Add your seasoning.






9. Cook covered for 20 min on medium low heat.








I like to have a garbage bowl like Rachel Ray :P







10. Heat the pasta water and salt it.







11. Butter your lasagna over proof pan.







12. Cook your pasta at your desired tenderness.







Zakumi loves to watch and beg. So adorable.







Peppe sniffing anything that the trash might of missed.







13. Drain your pasta.







14. Put a layer of your pasta in the oven proof bowl
and add some ricotta.







My ricotta.







15. Add some shredded mozzarella.







This is what it looks like...YUMMERS







16. Add a layer of your cooked beef.







17. Add another layer of pasta and then some more shredded mozzarella.







18. Bake it for a few minutes so the layers of cheese will melt.
(350 degrees)







TA-DA!









My husband playing with the boys.









Layers and layers of non-lasagna.








ENJOY!






Peppe decided to join us by eating his lunch too.





Zakumi giving me his best FEED ME face :D
