Yummy Scrummie Veggie Lasagna
Hi All,
PLaced this on a thread earlier today before I noticed the recipie thread. This is really yummy and very filling!!
Im not a veggie but cooked this last night and everyone loved it. I have tweeked the receipe. Works out at 4 points per serving, had mine with a big leafy salad and a drizzel of low fat italian dressing so 5points max!!!
You will need
1 medium corget sliced
1 large onion finely sliced
2 red peppers sliced
8 cherry tomatoes halved
8 leaves of fresh basil
1 tablespoon of each of the following:
Rosemary, Oregano
2/3 cloves of garlic or 1 tsp of garlic granuals
1 tin of chopped tomatoes (250-350g)
Handful of rocket
Baby Sweet Corn (2 handfuls chopped)
Mange Tout (1 handful chopped)
salt and black pepper
100mls of skimmed milk
1 250g tub of extra light philly cheese
6 lasagna sheets (not pre cook).
Parmashan Cheese (2 tablespoons) optional. If omitting deduct 1/2 point per portion.
Step One
In a deep pan brown off the onions in a single spray of low fat oil. Then add the corget, peppers, sweet corn and mangetout to the pan. Add boiling water and simmer for 5 mins (softens the veg)
Step 2
Drain off the water and add the chopped tomatoes and herbs and garlic(excluding the fresh basil leaves)
Bring up to the boil and simmer for a few minutes adding salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
While your tomatoe mix is simmering. In a jug mix together the philly cheese and milk, this will mix quiet well however the hand mixer is quicker.
Step 4
Now add your basil leaves. Tear up the leaves to release the scent and flavor and stir into your tomatoe mix.
Step 5 - Layering
Place a layer of the tomatoe mix into the bottom of a lasagne or cassorole dish.Then add a sprinkling of the rocket leaves on top of the tomatoe mix.
Then add a layer of the pasta sheets try not to overlap (will take 3 sheets.)
Then pour a layer of the white cheese sauce. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the paramshan chesse over the white sauce.
Then add the final layer of tomatoe mix, layer of rocket, then pasta then white sauce and cheese again.
Place the halved cherry tomatoes on top and some black pepper.
Step 6
Place in the oven on gas mark 200 and bake for 25 mins or until the top layer appears to golden.
Serving suggestion.
Serve with mixed leaf salad and some low fat dressing.
And hey presto a yummy scrummy dinner for 4, low in points and extreamly filling
