World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed on Aug. 8, 2008 by Astrid Davidson
This turned out quite good. My son always said my Lasagna was the best (similar to this but with ground beef). Then my children became vegetarian and my lasagna was made with vegetables--no meat. I didn't like my lasagna --too runny. So, this looked good. I went through all of the reviews, every one! What amazes me is the amount of salt. Every major health issue is affected by salt--weight, heart disease, blood pressure, cancer, high cholesterol --you name it. I thought it was a typo but it became clear that it wasn't. I am reminded of a TV program about health food that warned-- if it has the sugar reduced --salt is added. If sugar is reduced--salt is added. I use NO salt if I use any processed foods (ei., sausages, canned vegetables etc.) and in general cooking then only as much as 1/2 or 1 tsp. I tell my guests that I don't use salt so they can use their own discretion. Back to the recipe--I am very pleased with all the suggestions made--I used the pinch of nutmeg. I made it the day before and did no cooking other than to brown the meat, onions, and garlic.. put it together to sit in the fridge for 24 hours. I did not cook my noodles--they went from the box to the pan.

Bacon and Tomato Cups

Reviewed on Mar. 16, 2008 by Astrid Davidson
I noted the reviews and doubled the recipe but didn't increase the amount of mayo. I think one only needs enough to make it stick together. Also, living in a small town on Vancouver Island means I can't always get all products. In this case it was the buttermilk biscuits. So, I used the flaky roles instead and divided them in three! Also I used muffin papers since I don't like greasing pans and they worked fine after letting them cool to take off the paper. I will certainly make them again.

Roti Bread from India

Reviewed on Jan. 29, 2008 by Astrid Davidson
Not like Roti I've tasted but still very good and went well with a currie dinner I served. I found it difficult to control the heat and also I really needed a hugh grill for this.
