Lasagne with spinach and cheese

Ok , this one has decidedly turned out to be an absolute favorite with everyone. I have tested this recipe several times and noone, I repeat, NO ONE had to be hospitalized after eating it...:) No, come'on, people have loved it, really. The trick is to cook all ingredients somewhat beforehand.

I'll just get on with it-

Ingredients:

400 grams spinach (could be more as they shrink when heated - the more the merrier)

250 grams cottage cheese

200 grams white, salty cheese (eg Feta or Bulgarian)

3 eggs

1 small red onion

3 cloves of garlic

2 spoonfuls of olive oil

400 grams canned tomatoe cubes

1 pack of pasta sauce

salt, black pepper,

fresh or dried oregano and basil

150 grams lasagna leafs

150 grams grinded mozarella cheese

1.We cook the spinach in boiled water for a minute or two and then screen it so it wouldn't be soaked with water. We add the cottage cheese and the smashed feta cheese, as well as the eggs. We stir well - i use a kitchen aid -and add salt and pepper.

2. We cook the diced onions with a bit of olive oil, after a minute or two we add the canned onions and the pasta sauce and 1-2 cups of water. We stir and add our spices.

3. We place the lasagne leafs in boiled, -hot- water until they soften up and place them next to one another verically, until they fit in a medium-sized rectangular pattern. We spread the tomato sauce on the lasagne leafs, and add our spinach-cheese mixture on top of it. We sprinkle it with grinded mozarella. We cover the spread with another layer of lasagne leafs, just, this time we lay down 2 leafs horizontally and one vertically. We repeat the procedure all together 3 times, each time spreading the lasagne leafs opposite to the layer below. Our fourth layer of lasagne leafs will be sprinkled with the remaining tomatoe sauce and mozarella.

4. We bake it covered for 35 mins on 180 C and then wait another ten mins until we slice and serve it.

Bon Appetit!

Onion Quiche

Onion quiche or "pashtida" is a great starter to your meal or could stand on its own as a light dish with salad on the side. The main ingredient here - no, you never could have guessed - is onion, loads of onion. When baked in the oven it loses its rough edges and becomes sweet but with character.

So here is the recipe:

100 grams butter

5 large red onions

1 cooking cream (3 dl)

4 eggs

5 spoons of flour

2 packs of cottage cheese (500 grams)

We cook the onions with the cream on low fire.

Meanwhile we screen the flour - makes it airy -and mix it with the stirred eggs and cottage cheese. We pour the creamy onions on the flour-egg-cheese mix, and spice it with salt, pepper ( a little garlic won't hurt either). We stir the mixture until it gets relatively even and the pour it on a greased pattern.
