Can you make lasagna without pasta? Why yes, you can. I didn’t even miss the pasta! Zucchini and squash are officially the best substitutions for pasta. 

• 2 large zucchinis
• 2 large squashes
• 1 cup no salt added tomato sauce (I used Sprouts Tomato Sauce)
• 2/3 cup tofu, diced
• 9 large spinach leaves
• 1/3 cup part skim ricotta cheese (fat free would be better)
• 1/3 cup Soysation cheese shreds 
• salt and pepper
• olive oil spray

1. Preheat oven to 375F.
2. Wash the zucchini, squash, spinach leaves, and tofu.
3. Cut the ends off the zucchinis and squashes.
4. Using a mandoline, create slices of zucchini and squash.
5. In a food processor, puree the tofu and spinach leaves. Add in some salt and pepper.
6. Use the olive oil spray to coat the bottom of a dish. 
7. Lay the ingredients in the following order: zucchini, tomato sauce, squash, ricotta, zucchini, tofu mixture, squash, ricotta, tomato sauce, and cheese shreds. 
8. Bake for 45-55 minutes. In the last five minutes, top the lasagna with more cheese shreds. 
9. Let the lasagna cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Cauliflower crust

As some of you have been asking for the cauliflower crust recipe, I decided to write it down; I hope this helps.

1) These are the ingredients I used: cauliflower, eggs, carrots and parsley. Of course you can skip the carrots or the parsley or even add other things.
2) Shred the cauliflower, watch out for your fingers, it might hurt a little.
3) Shred your carrots and add them.
4) Cut the parsley to tiny pieces, add eggs, salt and pepper.
5) Mix everything well!
6) Get your pan and heat up some oil – I used olive oil.
7) Fill the mixture inside of the pan, disperse it a little and put the top back on the pan.
8) Wait about 8 minutes. As long as your cauliflower crust roasts, you can make a nice cup of tea and cut all other ingredients that you want to put on top of your crust, be creative, everything is possible and absolutely delicious!

9) Flip your crust -  It might be difficult and about to break – try to use a plate to flip it. Once you’ve managed this, let it roast on the other side for some more minutes.
10) Now decorate it with anything you want and enjoy this healthy heaven!

Ginger and Soy Marinated Steak on Green Tea Soba

Hey guys, 1.5 hours before my midterm so OBVIOUSLY I’m gonna need to procrastinate and post up my recipe now!

After seeing my friend get her green tea soba, I knew I had to try it and this was SO good.

It was like, taking something japanese and throwing a bit of Canadian Jason pizazz in there :D 

With a parsley ginger “dressing” to coat the noodles and mushrooms, it was to DIE for. Even my mother who is a typical “I do not show emotion” kinda asian mom said it was rather fantastic!

Ingredients (for 1 serving, just multiply!):

- 1 portion of a steak (I used sirloin)

- 1 cup of parsley, finely chopped

- 1.5 cups mushrooms, I used these organic random ones I found

- 1 portion of dried soba noodles

- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 tablespoon honey

- juice of one lime

- small piece of ginger (about 1.5” long)

- 2 cloves of garlic

- olive oil

- few tablespoons sherry, or stock for deglazing

- some pea shoots

Directions:

So for the steak:

- get a nice disposable plastic bag

- put 2 tablespoons soy, some oil, 1 tablespoon honey, mince the garlic and ginger in, and squeeze the lime juice in

- shake shake shake

- smack smack smack

- let marinade in fridge for as long as possible

- take it out, sear on both sides for about 2 minutes each until you’ve got a nice crust

- toss into 375F oven for about 8-10 minutes while you “assemble” everything else, let it rest and then cut

For the mushrooms and sauce:

- use a bit of olive oil and throw in the mushrooms at HIGH heat, you don’t want them to steam 

- once browned, throw about 1 cup of parsley in, salt and pepper, and toss toss toss until the parsley is slightly wilted and put everything on the plate

- deglaze the pan with some sherry (or just stock) and about a teaspoon of honey

- stir on the LOWEST heat possible and add in the rest of the parsley and keep going until everything’s nice and rich looking

and of course… serve and eat!
