'This recipe is a favorite of my vegetarian friends,' writes Virginia Anthony of Blowing Rock, North Carolina. 'I lightened it by using egg substitute and reduced-fat cheese. I also added a few more vegetables.'
A pound of fresh mushrooms along with lots of bell peppers and onions gives full-bodied flavor to this veggie-packed lasagna. Layer with noodles and a creamy blend of ricotta and mozzarella cheeses.
This is the perfect comfort food for cold days. To make it vegan, substitute non-dairy ingredients for dairy. Leftover filling makes a great lunch! If you want to make mashed potatoes from scratch, you will want at least 4 cups when you are through.
Best Beef Recipe. This classic French braised beef, red wine, and vegetable stew is simple and delicious. It stands above all of our other beef recipes because it offers the homey comfort and convenience of pot roast yet is versatile and sophisticated enough for entertaining. Garnish with chopped fresh thyme. --Recipe by Lia Huber (November 2004)
