After children we started cooking more simply. After discovering the cause of my frequent migraines was an evolving long list of chemicals and odd ingredients, I began getting back to cooking from basic ingredients, and found I could be well again.

I'm In The Mood For Food: In The Kitchen With Garfield

By Jim Davis
Andrews McMeel Publishing - 2003

This is a meatless version of no-boil lasagna made with regular type noodles and spahgetti sauce. It was a great way to cook lasagna with my son and if you don't want to fuss with it, highly recommended. For taste, I prefer to make it from scratch. I was first exposed to this type of lasagna preparation at a griend's house and it is a convenient way to get out of the kitchen fast.
