so... i was in the mood for some lasagna. today was a LONG day from the start! one of my best friends came over to help us clean out our storage room. boy, did we collect a lot of stuff. after almost 12 years of marriage, we could have had more, but it was still a moderate amount. so after building shelves, moving tricycles and old boxes, i was a wee bit tired. all that hard work drew up quite an appetite! whew... so, back to the lasagna. just thinking about the tedious process of making the lasagna was making me yawn. so i short-cutted it. i mean, shortened the process, big time. this meal took 30 minutes from start to finish. plus, this quick lasagna pasta costs less than making regular lasagna. anyway, after it was all said and done, we tasted it. the hubby said, wow. this tastes EXACTLY like lasagna. i was smiling from ear to ear. i have to admit... after making this pasta, i do not know when i will actually take the time to make a lasagna anymore. maybe when my 4 kids go off to college. or maybe i'll make it one day while on vacation. but for now... i'll stick with this pasta! 🙂
