Cafeteria food is in order for the next few days since we have house guests (8 in the house total) from all points west. We will get to feel what it feels like to feed a large family, and while we will most likely be enjoying the fruits that NYC has to offer we will still eat a few meals at home and for starters we will have hunks of lasagna.
I didnt use any sauce and I didnt boil the pasta sheets before hand because I am radical like that.
One hundred percent vegetarian with the sauce on the side.

That's good lasagna, I can tell by the looks! There is no need for meat to make a good lasagna you know! Hope you enjoy your guests! (to be with them not to eat them obviously)
You're a rebel without a sauce!!! (and uncooked pasta)
Looks good. I gotta try that some time.
Looked darn good, no matter how who did it, or what was in it!
Welcome to a sample of my little world! Nice lasagna. I hate preboiling noodles, too.
anette: we shall see how it goes....
jenn: it made the pasta perfectly al dente
buff: all of the above...
marjie: I thought of you when I typed this up...
I agree w/ Jen. Rebel without sauce. What a unique delicious (and simple) looking lasagne.
I'll take a slice, please.
Have a great Easter with your family/guests.
If it turns out well (surprise if it doesn't), more details, please, for those of us who need them. Thank you for your time and attention.
Hope all of you have a grand time!
What kind of pasta did you end up using? Fresh pasta? (because I know there's also these weird dry no-precooking pasta for lasagne now)
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog :) How you've given me a new one to follow! I look forward to new posts.
Lasagna with fresh tomatoes! Nice, light dish!
OMG! This looks fabulous! and those tomatoes look heavenly! you know real Italians don't boil their noodles. The noodles soak up the juices from the other ingredients while baking.
a nice thick lasagna, what a great way to welcome guests. yeah, I agree, preboiling is dinosaur age.
stacey: you too - I hope you and mister snacks and the whole extended snackdom have a nice day
joy: e mail me I will give details...
mel: regular pasta...
maya: fresh tomatoes- fresh spinach and fresh basil with ricotta and mozzarella and olive oil.
mish: thats exactly what it did - it absorbed perfectly...
dawn: I often make this with home made pasta and that does need a quick blanching...
I love lasagna that doesn't fall apart when you cut it...and you get to see all the layers inside. this one fits the bill.
welcome to my lifeDog, on feeding a large family! ;)
HAPPY EASTER to you and yours.
XOXOXOXOX
Never heard of making lasagna that way, and it sure looks good. And you know what else? I've never about NOT putting meat in there. I'll have to try that next time and see if my family notices.
Happy Easter!

beth: happy easter to everyone over in your neck of the woods too - yup a dozen eggs is good for one go round
bina: happy easter to you and yours as well - yeah - vegetarian isnt just for vegetarians you know
snugs: happy easter - I am dealing with it - its only day two
By the way did you count me in your guest list??? Nice Lasagna Christo once in a while I did prefer to have everything vegan...
Wow, that lasagna looks amazing. Have a great time with your guests!
Radical is a nice quality in a man. Lasagne looks absolutely like something I would enjoy. Your guests must LOVE you.
this looks awesome! I love the idea of the sauce on the side. I bet this was so fresh tasting with all of those tomatoes and basil- yum!
Delicious looking lasagna! Those tomatoes look amazing.
oh yum! That looks excellent!! I like the "sauce on the side" idea. (did you use ricotta??)
ramya: sure - you can be on the guest list - why not
elyse: hitting all the tourist spots
donna: just bending those rules to suit my needs - I guess they have to love me they are family....
healthy: light and tasty not bogged down by heavy sauce....
lisaiscooking: another one of my favorite ways to make this is with alternating tomato and zucchini
tavolini: no, maybe, why?
whoa..pretty sweet looking DB.
That is insane! It looks phenomenal!!!
You had me at lust ... and then those pictures did me in. This looks amazing, doggy! I hope the visit is going well. Cheers and happy Easter!
I got mail today! Thank you for the goodies- call me when you can break free from the family for a minute, I don't know what to do with some of the stuff
I like radical
Eighteen. E-I-G-H-T-E-E-N in the house this holiday. I spent the entire time in the kitchen. I need a holiday, do you have a room?
nicely done! How did you like it without boiling the noodles? I did a manicotti last night and debated not boiling them. In the end I got scared and still boiled.
That's cheesey and pasta-y to the max. You know it's good eatin!
