Day 16 of the 31 Day Vegetarian Challenge: Vegetable Lasagna 🤌

[@marlenathorvald]

How dare you talk about ricotta like that

[@beckyhines3814]

I don't like ricotta either. I use 3 other cheeses and no cottage cheese either. You don't need to spend extra money on the no bake noodles either. Use regular noodles and don't boil them. Layer everything like usual and the sauce will make the noodles soft. It takes 45mins to an hour and the noodles will be done. I've been making it for years. Trust me it will be good. 😊

[@jackie5046]

Hahaha...

[@marlenathorvald]

@@mariafentis I don't need to read more recipes I love ricotta. I've had plenty of different kinds of lasagna and I like different kinds of lasagna I've made it with cottage cheese I like that too but they are talking shit on ricotta and I love ricotta cheese

[@marcellobalenzano8374]

Instead of axing the ricotta, ax that pre-shredded cheese in a bag that’s coated with starch and cellulose

[@lorelwebber6435]

You can grate from a block if you really like. The block doesn’t have it you just gotta grate it’s not hard.

I'm Italian and I hate Ricotta in savory disges too. Only good in pastries

[@cotolettaelimone]

Lasagna comes from Bologna, it doesn't mean that because it comes from a country all the recipes used there are the right ones. You will never find real cannoli in Modena or some real pizza in Milan

[@z.a.1237]

I am sicilian and I use besciamella.

[@peterlosee4606]

Why doesn’t she try whipping the ricotta with some cream?

[@sw3et24x7]

I love lasagna in general so either/or for me but I'm more impressed with how cleanly that slice came out of the pan! 😮

[@calvinsweet3400]

Ricotta is so good

[@NicoleJoAnn]

Ricotta is the shit. Although I will be trying this, looks delicious!❤

[@lianav707]

You season the ricotta with salt and pepper, fresh basil…

[@sandragrace4613]

Right. Bechamel is for Moussaka.

[@Shoofly000]

As if that's enough to give it flavor. I have to add a shit ton of seasoning to ricotta before it tastes good

[@asia8001]

Thank you I’m like somebody had to release the thinking was a little dense lol. I’m like how do you season the sauce but can’t season ricotta and see if you would like it. I could understand not liking that type of cheese or the texture but to say it’s bland as if seasonings don’t exist... Now I’m wondering did she ever season her lasagna or was she always eating bland lasagna. 😂😂

[@justmejenny7986]

Yes! Thank you! From an Italian.

[@mauhuff]

Ricotta is one of my fave parts of lasagna. Ricotta cheese is delicious. 😅

[@Trac82]

It sounds like the person who made it , didn't have good quality cheese and sauce. That makes a big difference.

[@pinkpastelhearts]

hell yes it is

[@girlandhercat6169]

Béchamel😊 is only butter, flour, and milk with nutmeg sprinkled. When you ad cheese, it becomes a MORNAY sauce.

[@aquagamer1212]

It's usually french people that do lasagna with bechamel. I like it both ways but the bechamel one is my childhood

[@taniserobnett177]

Are you French? That's cool.

It's an italian thing, not French! It's how we most often make lasagne

[@venessatalbert9232]

You did a wonderful job! Looks delicious ❤

[@michaelkurtz1967]

Ricotta is a little bit more allergy friendly than the bechamel sauce. Sometimes people used drained cottage cheese for the same reason. Less whey.

[@TheAkumaChan]

YES! Spitting facts

[@aquarius2821]

Perfect! Omg ❤ This is exactly how i make my vegetable lasagna 😋

[@KoryGrayson]

[@mydesiredplan]

YESSSSSS Finally someone else that feels the same way! Can't wait to try this recipe.

[@NopeUghUghAbsolutelyNot]

You weren't seasoning and blending your ricotta? Interesting... I never would have even thought to try it plain

[@azulposeido]

Good quality ricotta is superb. Common brands like Galbani are blah at best. Cheap ricotta in the USA is just not good. But you can find amazing ricotta being produced here. You are going to have to search for it and it will cost more.

[@azulposeido]

And forgot to add - ricotta is not bland. If your ricotta lacks taste it is a bad ricotta.

[@justmejenny7986]

And it needs to be seasoned.

[@439801RS]

Give me sec, selling both my kidneys to add good ricotta to my mid pasta dish I know I'll die, that's the goal

[@439801RS]

​@azulposeido or people just don't like certain things and they're allowed to

[@Bastian-p8w]

that looks so good

[@SophieRapp-p1e]

Yummy yummy !!!

[@DarkKitten99]

I make mixed cheese in lasagna. Like parm, Italian cheese, ricotta and cottage cheese and mozzarella as the cheese layer

[@nhf7170]

This looks delicious. I want some now.

[@jus2cute09]

You gotta season the ricotta first so it isn’t bland…

[@anitak8056]

Looks so good and easy enough to make it vegan😋💚🤍❤️

[@Halllihallo]

This looks soooo good

[@hywodena]

You really should add some water if youre not precooking your noodles. Its gonna suck every bit of moisture out of that sauce and cheese and it will be way too dry

[@LiveEatLearn]

The bechamel makes this one super moist!

[@milling37]

Looks good,i will try👍😋

[@junifatimah4029]

i certainly will try this recipe 👍♥️

[@AC-or2ss]

This may sound odd but I find adding a little nutmeg, garlic, and basil to my ricotta takes it to the next level…for stuffed shells you add the seasonings and an egg. But I love ricotta, and will splurge on a good brand.

[@MindyColette]

I’d add ricotta to this immediately😂🤷🏻‍♀️. Oh and i don’t care for that rubbery no boil lasagna noodle! But this looks good!!

[@p215j]

Thank you. Going to give this version a go

[@AviatorMaus]

I don't like ricotta in lasagna either lol! I like to use cottage cheese 😅 I do like the pasta queen's ricotta balls though

[@kavitapanchal4132]

[@tiffanyross4266]

I like the texture of ricotta. But I will make this version at least once. ❤❤❤❤❤ Thanks for sharing

[@tiffanyross4266]

Update I made it tonight my family loved it they said it was like a Mac and cheese lasagna mash up personally I like the ricotta better, but it's actually delicious. I look forward to trying or adjusting your recipes in the future. This was a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing

[@gracestv7001]

Thats literally all the things i like 😊

[@SWiseman]

She's right. Ricotta does not belong in an authentic traditional lasagna. Italians use a bechamel sauce, which is more labor intensive. I think they use ricotta cheese primarily for desserts.

[@hbuju2015]

You should try adding cooked green lentils. Gives it that meaty taste

[@FENRlZ]

This looks firee 🔥🔥 😍

It's certainly the most common way of making lasagne in Italy, so it makes sense if you have italian ancestry or have lived in Italy 😊

[@justmejenny7986]

No not all of Italy. Imagine speaking for a whole country. Lol.

[@shauntishaeubanks9735]

I agree with the whole ricotta statement

[@t4msin]

for the veggies, a lot of parmesans aren't vegetarian friendly, so just be wary when buying!

[@Feliciastansbury]

That depends on where you are in italia. There are many types. This is the lasagna from Bologna the version America is used to comes from Napoli. My favorite in the fall is gorganzola and pumpkin with bescimella and Parmigiano reggiano ❤❤❤❤❤😊

[@VSorceress]

You ain’t seasoning your ricotta honey?? Ohhh dear. Bless ur heart 🙏

[@neelubird]

I used to buy vegetable lasangne ready meal. It was a good gluten free brand called Amy's which sadly seems to have discontinued as I can't find it anymore but yours seems to have a lot of the same ingredients so I'd like to try this and see if it works as a home made version

[@jdavinci8000]

NOT BOILING THE NODDLES IS CRAXY BRO

[@LiveEatLearn]

@@jdavinci8000they are no cook noodles, they cook while they bake

[@Msjasminee_]

They literally have oven ready lasagna in stores every where 😂 no need to boil it cooks while baking

[@CarinaCoffee]

Just want to mention as this is tagged as a vegetarian challenge, if you use real parmigiano reggiano (parmesan) than it's not vegetarian as that's made with enzymes from baby cow stomach (that have to die before you get the enzymes out of the stomach). Same goes for other cheeses like grana padano and gorgonzola. Now, those cheeses can be made with microbial enzymes, but if they're traditionally made cheeses than baby cows had to die for them, thus they're not vegetarian.

[@adriannaviir1289]

Nutmeg is the key in lasagne

Talks down to ricotta…uses bag cheese

[@crystalseed.422.4]

Ricotta should be seasoned at least that’s what we do we season it with garlic powder black pepper Parmesan and Romano and oregano and parsley and then we add that to the lasagna

[@kfo0o11]

I like to boil my lasagna sheets a little before assembling the dish it's make cooking time in the oven less and faster to eat 😋

[@LiveEatLearn]

We used no boil lasagna noodles for this one! If you don’t get that variety, then you should definitely cook them first

[@joeyk5]

That looks great and I agree. Ricotta has a place but NOT in Lasagne
