Broccoli Lasagne (With Broccoli)

  1. Grab 2 1/2 fistfuls of chopped onions out of the freezer
  2. Chop up the rest of the red onion laying around in your fridge plus 1 red pepper.
  3. Mince, I don't know, 5 or 6 cloves of garlic.
  4. Add a gollop of olive oil and fry'er up.
  5. Meanwhile, dice up 2 heads of broccoli & steam them until they're kinda steamed but not steamed enough.
  6. Add the broccoli, fry, add a tin of chopped tomatoes & season.  If you're lazy, go for the kind that comes pre-herbed & seasoned.
  7. Add the tomato sauce Elisabeth had set aside for super burritos without telling her.
  8. Bring to a boil then simmer until Henry gets bored & you have to put him to bed.  Leave on a low heat.
  9. Mix 1 pack of (Or, if you're feeling not lazy, 1 bunch of blanched and) chopped spinach with 1 thing of ricotta.
  10. Open your pack of insta-lasagne noodles.
  11. Layer: Noodles, tomato sauce, more noodles, the cheesy spinachy mess, more noodles.
  12. Grate a shit load of mozzarella on top of it all.
  13. Get Elisabeth to bake it at 350 for a while with the foil on.  Then bake some more with the foil off.  Feed Henry.  Take it out, serve, realize it's too cold, eat it anyway, cook it some more, bathe Henry, you're not hungry any more, leave it in the oven for too long, drink too much wine.
  14. Enjoy and happy Valentines Day.

  1. What a busy beaver you were on Monday, the meal sounds good though, especially if it was cooked.
    Winston and I had the salmon he gave me.

  2. The entry is deliberately misleading. I did a lot of the cooking on Sunday.
