    this is absolutely divine, very rich though so you don't need too much but rather have a small slice with loads of salad...except of course you are a little piggy like me!!
    :p
    Spinach Lasagne

    2 onions, chopped
    olive oil
    as much garlic as you dare
    2 800 gram cans of tomatoes
    salt and pepper
    1 pack of frozen spinach
    one bunch of fresh spinach as in the silverbeet kind...chopped and cooked
    2 250 gram containers of cream cheese
    lasagne sheets
    breadcrumbs
    butter/margarine

    Chop the spinach and cook it in a bit of water and drain.
    Chop onion and garlic and cook in saucepan until translucent, be careful not to burn it
    Whizz the cans of tomatoes in a blender and add half the onion and garlic and whizz it again.
    put the frozen spinach in the frypan with the onion and garlic and defrost it quick...then add the cooked spinach and combine.Then add the cream cheese and melt it through the spinach, onion and garlic mix.
    Grease a lasagne tray with marg/butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Then put the first layer in of the spinach mix, next goes a sheet of lasagne followed by half the tomato mix, then another spinach layer, lasagne sheets and the tomato mix as the final layer. On top of the whole thing sprinkle breadcrumbs and dobs of marg/butter.
    cook for 1 to 1 and a half hours...or when it seems to be as cooked and as crunchy on top as possible and then eat too much and die on the couch like I am!!!

    oh, wickedly yum! I like the 'as much garlic as you dare'!.... (Garlic isn't a seasoning in my house, it's a side dish!)
