In the last few years, since I started eating a plant-based diet I am the maker of my own food on Thanksgiving. It’s a nice way to experiment and come up with new things each year.

Since I was already making food for our Thanksgiving meal, John asked if I would make “lasagna” for him. Before you start thinking that I am quite the wife let’s get clear on what lasagna is in John’s world. It involves spaghetti sauce (jarred of course), noodles and mozzarella cheese. That’s it!

Now I make the lasagna as requested and, of course, mock it along the way.

But much to my surprise a couple years ago this side dish took off.

Everyone wanted some of John’s special recipe “lasagna.”

It was a hit and now I have to make a full pan to be sure that John still has something left to eat.

Hmmm, thanksgiving and lasagna…who knew?
