going green (and white and red ...)

The Wednesday following our Thanksgiving trip, Tiffany and took another shot at our old standby, Veggie Lasagna. This was the first meal that we cooked together, so to us it smells extra special coming out of the oven. Once we made it for a double dinner date with Erin and Todd. Todd even ate it, which could either be a testament ("if Todd likes it, it must be good ...") or an indictment ("... so you're saying it tastes like ketchup or hot dogs or macaroni & cheese?"), depending on how you look at it.

But any way you look at it, it does at least look great.

As it turns out it tastes pretty great, too. Tiffany and I take our sweet time cutting up all of our favorite veggies. Occasionally we divide the dish into halves, hers maybe having more carrots and mine favoring mushrooms. We've decided that the top layer (there are three) needs to have spinach 'neath the mozzarella for aesthetics. In the under layers we discuss where we should put softer versus harder cheeses, and how exactly to arrange the veggies; each time we end up assembling a new variation on the theme.

The cat, though, is never impressed.
