Vegetarian Lasagna
If anyone is interested I came across this recipe for vegtetarian Lasagna and recently made it for some vegetarian friends.
I had one once that was delicious and made the mistake of never asking for the recipe. I have been searching for a good recipe ever since and have made some that ranged from "O.K." all the way down to "throw it in the garbage".
This one came out really well. It had a great taste to it and was not soggy at all. Just make sure to drain the nliquids from any of the sauteed vegetables and the cheeses.
Enjoy,
Thomas

Instead of lasagna noodles, substitute slices of eggplant.

We also sub with thinly sliced chicken or veal or pork chops..

JJ- Yup- Sometimes I will batter the eggplant slices, coat with breadcrumbs, pan fry then assemble the lasagne.
Bread crumb mixture- 1/2 Italian seasoned bread crumbs, 1/2 Panko. Add fresh grated parmesan and granulated garlic to taste.

Yum.
Someone once gave me the mother of all zucchinis - way too huge to eat. I thickly sliced it, breaded it, fried and layered it like eggplant parmigiana.

Back home, in August, in a town with 170 people and a county population under 1000, Eggplant and Zucchini is used to toture your neighbors.
When in town, in August, you must lock your car doors, and never drive a truck.
If you fail to do either of those two things, your vehicle will be filled with large garden vegetables you will have a tough time getting through.
Last summer, I took a load of chicken eggs to town to the Senior Citizen's Center. Upon leaving, the entire back portion of my truck was filled with Eggplant and Zucchini.
It's tough having friends, Shit.

With a large zucchini, I borrow from the Chinese. I treat it like bitter melon and stuff it. My favorite stuffing is ground pork with garlic, then steamed. Or, you can Americanize it using ground beef with cheese melted over it. Italian, use Italian sausage, top with Mozz, make some red gravy and Voila! Good stuff!!

The first garden I helped my daughters plant while in Denver had about 1/3 of its space devoted to zucchini. We ate it in everything, gave it to friends until they were no longer friends, and handed it out at church until people avoided us. It is the cure for world hunger!
As to eggplant in lasagne: yuck. But... while "Atkins-ing" a couple years back, I found a good use for battered and fried eggplant. I used them instead of a muffin and made an outstanding rendition of Eggs Benedict that was "Atkins Friendly."

That sounds absolutely soggy, especially as there's already eggplant in the recipe.
Eggplant Parm in the LL style is salted to pull moisture out, breaded, baked (not fried, for that heart healthy delish-ishness), then layered with the secret sauce and cheeses.  No I will not sell/give/gift/barter the recipe.
Tress, gonna try this recipe sometime, though I don't think I'll use the tofu, not a big fan of it. I'm thinking roasted pine nuts to compensate and add protein. Oh, and double the amount of garlic. Or triple. In the vegie part AND the sauce part.

Time and place, baby, time and place.
For you, the chances of your HH6 acquiring the recipe... are proportionate to the length of time I'm allowed to be unsupervised in your gun safe on steroids/bunker/armory...

That's the way I make mine.
Of course the secret to any good eggplant/chicken parm, lasagne or pasta is in the gravy. AKA that's the red sauce for you non-Italians.
