So, Eric is back in Denver dealing with 'He Who Shall Remain Unnamed So That I May Avoid the Use of Extreme Profanity'. While I do miss him, I also enjoy a bit of time to myself. Sadly, most of my time has been spent cleaning. But, I like a clean home so it's a win/win.

| Sweet Italian Chicken Sausage |
I contemplated going out to dinner on my own tonight. With all my traveling for my previous job, dining alone is something I'm used to and rather enjoy. However, I thought it would be a nice gesture to cook something that Eric could enjoy tomorrow when he gets home.

| EVOO and 4 cloves of garlic |
So, lasagna it is.

| Eric's Garden |

| Fresh basil from Eric's garden |

I don't cook on a regular basis. And when I do cook it is QUITE rare that I use the same recipe twice. I look at cooking as a challenge and I don't find it challenging to make the same thing more than once.

| Parmesan, Mozzarella, and Fontina = Cheesy Goodness! | |
|
So, while this is not the healthiest lasagna I've ever made, I'm hoping
it is delicious. It's currently cooling on the counter. Therefore, I
must make this a short blog...my tummy is rumbling!

| Simmering tomatoes, basil, sausage, garlic | |

| Assembled and ready for the 400 degree oven |
Eric...I hope this gives you FOUR things to look forward to tomorrow...me, Grace, Cyrus, and homemade lasagna with ingredients from your garden!
 |
| I hope it tastes as good as it looks! Ciao! |
Holy moly - now I'm hungry - what time are leftovers?!?!?
ReplyDeleteOk, now for the serious question - what wine accompanied?
xo-C
If I were ever going to let people eat my cooking...this would be the dish. It turned out better than anything I've ever made!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I know lasagna is best served with red, but I drank a Coppola Pino Grigio with it and loved every drop! :0)
this dish looks so tasty, i really need to try it.
