I forgot to post this! I mean, it’s not a real recipe, so it’s only a half post, but still. You guys should know a little more than I revealed before.
I made the “creamy” sauce with cashews, mac nuts, butternut squash puree, and veg broth.
Then I greased the pan and layered.
First noodles, then squash puree, ground beef, frozen spinach, and “cream” sauce.
Then repeat…starting all over again with noodles.
The thing about these noodles is they were the kind you’re supposed to boil first. But I’m way too lazy for that.
And you can be too! But you have to do it the right way. Which I did not. But now I know how to do it the right way.
The right way is burying the top layer of noodles in enough stuff to weigh it down. You can’t have noodles up top without being submerged in liquid (sauce, squash puree, etc) because then they’ll curl up before cooking.
Like so.
Add all the toppings over the final layer of uncooked noodles and then pour enough water (or veg broth) around it, though, and you’ll be good to go.
I’m planning on trying this again soon but maybe with sautéed mushrooms in place of meat?
