Little Lasagna

Wonton Warrior is having a blast in Bizzy's kitchen.  I hope, he is not going to be angry at me for telling you, he is not the neatest cook.  I followed him around, wiping up spills, returning cheese to the refrigerator and washing dishes.  He is a bit lazy but he does know how to make magic with wontons.  


After, making lasagna, he made chocolate cream cheese dessert --- oh so yummy.


It was luck that I found an aluminum foil deep pan, the exact size of the wonton.  This is a pan, I must get a bunch of.  It made working with the wontons. a snap to use.


I made this, the way I make lasagna.  Next time, I will have the confidence to add some spinach to the mix.  


Little Lasagna


Ingredients:  For one little lasagna portion...


4 square wontons


1/3 cup Marinara sauce or any red pasta sauce


1 teaspoon Parmesan


2/3 cup cottage cheese or Ricotta


1/4 cup shredded Mozzarella (I used Mexican blend.)


1/2 small onion, chopped


1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning


1/4 teaspoon sugar 


salt and pepper to taste


Method:


Separate 4 wontons from the rest in the package and line them up on a smooth surface.


Mix cottage cheese or Ricotta with Parmesan, chopped onion,  sugar, seasoning, salt and pepper.


Spoon 2 tablespoons of sauce on bottom of baking pan.  
Layer:
1 wonton
2 tablespoons cottage cheese mixture
 1 tablespoon shredded cheese
1 wonton
sauce
Repeat


There should be 4 layers, ending with wonton topped with sauce and shredded cheese.  You may find you will use different amounts of the ingredients.  If you like it more or less cheesy, add some.  The same with the sauce and onions....


Make it your own.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
