Friday bake nights was an idea I came up with (one friday night of course!) after a long work week.Exhausted and too tired to muster the energy to go back out and enjoy a night out in town with my gal pals, I decided to stay in for a much needed bake sesh and some serious R&R.
With my comfy PJ's on, soft jazz music playing in the background, simple ingredients on hand, this fairly not-so-pro epicurean will tackle and in time overcome even the most difficult of baking recipes!
So have faith my friends and get ready to get a little dirty in the kitchen :) with yours truly of course.
Let's raise a toast to a communal blog made by and created for foodies just like yourselves.
United in our passion for food we can share, explore and part the waves for a new recipe exchange forum.
See above to submit recipes!
Here's to #fridaybakenights.
The weekend just got a lot better :D
Friday Bake Nights
Lasagne con amore! (or Lasagne with love)
Can you ever have enough lasagne?! Don’t even answer that.
The mecca of true comfort food, no matter how you make it, lasagne will make any bad day turn out just fine.
So girl, forget that diet! It’s time to carb it up! Sue style.
Can I get a amen?
You’ll need:
-Package of oven ready lasagne noodles
-Sue’s mean Sunday sauce (see earlier post for recipe)
-Frozen spinach
-2 tubs of 300g of extra smooth ricotta
-1 egg
-2 cup of mozzarella
-1 cup of parmesan
-11x 17 glass dish
Let’s start:
Preheat oven to 375̊
Thaw frozen spinach by following instructions on package. Squeeze out all excess moisture.
Prepare cheese mixture by mixing ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, egg and spinach. Set aside.
Using some oil coat the bottom of the pan to prevent noodles from burning. You can use Pam non stick spray.
Coat bottom of dish with spaghetti sauce
Line dish with 3-4 oven ready noodles
Top with spaghetti sauce
Top with cheese mixture
Repeat layers.
Once you are about 1-2 inches from the top of the dish pan, make the last layer with only spaghetti sauce and leave out cheese mixture. Top off with parmesan.
Cover with tin foil
Put in oven for 45 minutes to an hour.
Remove from oven, pour 1 cup of mozzarella cheese on top and place back in oven for another 10 minutes without foil until cheese is gooey.
Goes great with some garlic bread and salad
You could even prepare this the night before.
Keep on baking!
Love those curves carbs gave you :)
