Tuesday Night Dinner 23-Jun-2025

Green salad with blue cheese dressing.

Smoked Lasanga (meat sauce from America’s Test Kitchen Family Cookbook with added mushrooms and MSG, white part used cottage cheese and cream from Hearty Beef Lasagna (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wbzguIvaLk) with lots of finely diced black olives. Stacking amounts from that recipe too (although I think we did an extra layer) and homemade noodles, with cup pepperoni on top. Smoked on the Traeger, did it pretty hot, like 350-375 for about an hour. Recommend longer and slower for more smoke flavor.)

Banana and raspberry (from the backyard) instead of cherry clafloutis (https://www.seriouseats.com/cherry-clafoutis-french-dessert-recipe).
