CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT MEAT LASAGNA



Can't Believe It's Not Meat Lasagna image

A little Italian market near my work makes the most amazing vegetarian lasagna that I decided to re-create myself. I can't stand the stringiness of sqaush like veggies and hubby doesn't like texture of soy/tvp meat replacements, but I think I've found a combination that fixes our texture issues with other vegetarian lasagna recipes. It's a little bit of work but SO worth it!

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 pieces, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

9 lasagna noodles, cooked
32 ounces chunky pasta sauce with mushrooms
1 kg mixed vegetables, carrots, cauliflower and broccoli
1/4 cup textured vegetable protein (TVP)
1/2 cup water, boiling
1 teaspoon liquid beef bouillon
1 cup ground round (or other soy based ground beef replacement)
1 (16 ounce) can tomatoes, diced with Italian Spices
2 garlic cloves, minced
16 ounces cottage cheese (I use fat free)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
8 ounces frozen chopped spinach
2 medium eggs
4 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F Cook lasagna noodles as directed, boiling approximately 8-9 minute Also boil mixed vegetables until tender, approximately 8-9 minute Meanwhile, add boullion to boiling water then add TVP to rehydrate.
  • Add diced tomatoes and garlic to sauce, then split into two seperate pots (I rinse and reuse pots from step 1). In one pot of half sauce add boiled veggies, cover and let simmer for about 15 minute In the other pot of half sauce add TVP and ground round, cover and let simmer for about 15 minute Meanwhile, in a bowl combine spinach, cottage cheese, parmesean cheese and eggs.
  • In a deep 9x13 lasagna pan, add enough of the 'meat' pasta sauce to lightly coat the bottom. Add 3 lasagna noodles to cover the bottom of the pan with out overlapping the noodles if possible. Spread 1/2 cheese mixture on top of noodles, top with 1/2 veggie pasta sauce, sprinkle 1 cup mozzarella to complete first layer.
  • Repeat layer, 1/2 'meat' sauce, 3 noodles, remaining cheese mixture, remaining veggie sauce, 1 cup mozzarella.
  • Last layer, add remaining 3 noodles, remaining 'meat' sauce, sprinkle with remaining mozzarella.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes. Once removed from oven, let sit at least 10 minutes to allow lasagna to reabsorb a lot of the liquid you'll see on top.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S LOW FAT CARROT BREAD



I Can't Believe It's Low Fat Carrot Bread image

So moist and delicious you will never believe it is low fat. The original recipe given to me by my BF's mother used oil instead of applesauce, 2% milk and a cup of white sugar, I also added the vanilla. I changed the recipe to what it is now and he never knew the difference.

LOW-FAT MEATY LASAGNA



Low-Fat Meaty Lasagna image

No ricotta or cottage cheese here! A creamy béchamel and plenty of Parmesan cheese round out this hefty, meaty lasagna that doesn't taste, look or feel _light_ or diet-ish. From the 2008 edition of The Best of America's Test Kitchen cookbook - they did all the tweaking and testing for me! Note - no precooking of the lasagna noodles needed!

Categories     Poultry

Time 2h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 medium carrot, peeled and chunked
1 lb cremini mushrooms or 1 lb white mushroom
6 garlic cloves, peeled
2 (28 ounce) cans whole tomatoes with juice
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 cup minced onion
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 1/4 lbs lean ground turkey, 93% lean
2 cups 2% low-fat milk, divided
2 cups fat-free chicken broth, divided
1 bay leaf
1/2 cup minced fresh basil
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
12 no-boil lasagna noodles, no-boil variety (Barilla recommended)

Steps:

  • Meat Sauce:.
  • Place the carrots, mushrooms and garlic in the food processor and pulse until finely chopped - 10 pulses or so. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Add tomatoes with juice to the food processor and pulse till smooth - about 5 pulses. Set aside.
  • In a large Dutch oven or equivalent, combine 1 teaspoon olive oil, minced onion, salt and pepper. Cover and cook over medium heat until onion is soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the carrot/mushroom/garlic mixture and cook, uncovered, until the mushrooms release their liquid, 5-7 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and cook another 3-5 minutes or until liquid evaporates.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and cook until it begins to brown, 2 minutes or so. Stir in the turkey and 1 cup of milk. Cook, using a spoon to break up meat, until most of the milk has evaporated, 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, 1 cup of broth and the bay leaf. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened and most of the liquid has evaporated, 45-60 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, discard bay leaf and stir in the basil. Add more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Bechamel (white sauce):.
  • Whisk the remaining 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of broth and flour together in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring the mix to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and the Parmesan cheese.
  • Heat oven to 425F and adjust rack to upper-middle position.
  • Spread 2 cups of the meat sauce in a 13 by 9-inch baking pan. Lay 3 noodles atop sauce. Repeat layers 3 more times, ending with noodles. Spread white sauce evenly on the top layer of noodles, leaving a 1-inch border around the sides.
  • Bake until lasagna is bubbling around the edges and the top is beginning to brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool on wire rack for 20 minutes before serving.
  • Make Ahead: The meat sauce and white sauce can be made and refrigerated up to 2 days. Reheat both before assembling lasagna.

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and thyme; saute for 2-3 minutes. Add the spinach; saute until just barely wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, egg, salt, nutmeg, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Add the spinach and stir to combine. Transfer some of the mixture to a food processor and pulse a few times to break up some of the spinach pieces (totally optional, but makes for a really nice texture).
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spread a little bit of tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Layer with 3 lasagna noodles, 1/3 of the spinach mixture, 1/4 of the tomato sauce, and 1/4 of the cheese. Repeat and pour 1/2 cup water over the two layers. Repeat once more, ending with noodles, sauce, and cheese. Pour 1/2 cup water over the whole thing again and cover tightly with oiled foil.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes; when the liquid is bubbling and the noodles have softened, remove the foil and bake uncovered for 10 more minutes. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving so that the lasagna noodles can soak up all the extra moisture.
