Food

Zucchini and Squash “Lasagna” (no noodles)

June 24, 2009 13:46:40 EDT

Because of our recent farm subscription, my wife and I were inspired to refine the Zucchini Lasagna with Grilled Eggplant recipe I found into the following:

Zucchini and Squash “Lasagna” (no noodles)

  • 32 oz Ricotta (BelGioioso Ricotta Con Latte 73%) - drained if moisture is greater than 73%.
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 Handful of Basil Leaves - Chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons Grated Parmigiano Reggiano (Whole Foods) - Can be adjusted to taste
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 6 to 8 Zucchini and/or Yellow Squash (Birch Creek Farms CSA) - Sliced 1/4 inch thick (we used a Mandoline)
  • 24 oz Low Moisture Shredded Mozzarella
  • 4 to 5 Medium, or 3 Large Tomatoes - Seeded and sliced

Assembly

  • Mix drained pasta sauce and tomato paste in large bowl. Reserve in 3 parts if you want equal coverage of all layers.
  • In another large bowl, mix ricotta cheese, egg, chopped basil and Parmesan cheese.
  • In a standard-size deep lasagna pan, start by spooning enough sauce onto bottom of lasagna pan to prevent vegetables from sticking.
  • Layer slices of zucchini or yellow squash (separately or mixed together) over pasta sauce, covering bottom of pan. Overlap slices slightly.
  • Drop 4-5 large spoonfuls of ricotta mixture over slices and smooth mixture out with a broad knife or offset spatula.
  • Scatter 1-2 handfuls of mozzerella over ricotta.
  • Top with sauce, then another layer of vegetables, then another layer of ricotta and another layer of mozzerella.
  • Repeat once more so that there are three layers of vegetables and ricotta and mozzerella.
  • Over third layer of ricotta, place slices of tomatoes.
  • Top with any remaining sauce and the remaining mozzerella.
  • Bake for 1 hour at 375 F.

Makes 10-12 servings.

Recipe can be halved, but still use one egg in ricotta mixture.

The drained liquid from the pasta sauce can be saved and cooked down for a pre-seasoned tomato soup, or add in some bacon bits, cook down further, and you have a really simple BBQ sauce.

Experiments with food make cooking fun,

(but they also frequently annoy one's spouse---Anne Savidge)

Is that listed skill really required?

May 23, 2009 14:45:51 EDT

I though I’d pass along a concise article that attempts to answer one of the persistent questions that most job hunters ask themselves when looking at posted jobs: Which Skills Are Required?

Good luck with your job hunting,

New Form Items Overview for ObjectStudio

February 05, 2009 23:06:32 EST

This is the first of what I hope will be a series of screencasts about ObjectStudio. I’m in the process of learning this version of Smalltalk and I’d like to share what I learn with anyone who wants to follow along.

This screencast is a beginners level quick overview of the New Form Items window of the ObjectStudio UI Designer. For more information on this topic, see Chapter 1, Page 36 of the ObjectStudio User Interface Guide. In the near future, I hope to have another screencast, or screencasts, that will cover the entire Designer Quick tour section of that chaper.

As for this first screencast, click on the image below to watch:

Screen shot of the screencast that give a quick overview of the New Form Item window in ObjectStudio

Update: James Robertson has added this screencast to his Smalltalk Daily feed.

He has done some format conversions so that you can also watch the screencast on Vimeo:
