ReplyDeleteWe love lasagna! Will have to give this recipe a try. Thanks Yonca! :)
Eggplant is one of my favorite foods, and this recipe sounds delicious. We prefer our sauce meatless, so I think I'll try it with two eggplants, and minus the ground beef. Thanks, Yonca!
ReplyDeleteI love those no bake noodles, it makes everything go so much faster. Great idea about the eggplant!
ReplyDeleteMomma Such,you're welcome! Hope y'all like it!
ReplyDeleteJoanne,we love eggplant too. Especially hubby is a big fan of eggplant. I also tried it with mushroom instead meat. Hubby and I love it but my son didn't eat it.
Molly, aren't they the time saver? Plus, not bothering with the mess of boiling the noodles.
We all love lasagna and we never make it with meat as my son is *almost* a vegetarian. This might be a good one to try.
ReplyDeleteAren't the no-boil noodles awesome?? I just discovered them myself and they are soooo much easier than having the ones you need to boil?
ReplyDeleteYour eggplant lasagna looks SO good!! I've never had luck making anything with eggplant...I'm obviously doing something wrong!
Eggplant in a lasagna, brilliant.I love eggplant, but my kids don't. This might be the way to get them eat it.
ReplyDeleteWow this look sooo yummmy, I love lasagnas and I love eggplants. What a yummy combination this is ^_^. Joshua's gonna love this coz he likes eggplants too ^_^
ReplyDeleteTracie, I also made lasagna without meat and veggies. Only sauce and lots of lots of cheese:)hehe ..cheese makes everyone happy!
ReplyDeleteHelen,oh those noodles are great! Lol, it is a dry veggie and soaks up oil;) So I soak eggplant in salt water for about 10 - 20 minutes before using them.
Ms Bibi, actually my son doesn't like eggplant either. If I used 2 eggplants I think he wouldn't eat it.But he loved it like this:) Hope your kids like it too:)
Emily, your son loves eggplant? Oh, that is great! Give this recipe a try! Hope you and Joshua like eggplant lasagna :) Hugs!
Oh that sounds really tasty!
ReplyDeleteHow funny I was just telling my hubby I am in the mood for lasagna!
ReplyDeleteToo Many Hats,thanks,it was really yummy!
ReplyDeleteVicki,lasagna is a family favorite, it is sure to please everyone.Isn't it?
I'm not a fan of egg plant. I'd probably substitue it out. Looks yummy though!
ReplyDeleteLisa Anne, if you like zucchini, just use zucchini and red pepper instead of eggplant. (tested:))
ReplyDeleteWow this sounds really good. i want to try it. I was also thinking of growing eggplant later this year, so hmmmm! thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Michelle! Hope you like it.My hubby loves everything with eggplant. Lol,growing eggplant is such a great idea.
