The WW Vegetable Lasagne ended up being a relative success, although I'd put a mix of vegies in it next time. The eggplant (aka aubergine) was overkill for me personally and yep, I only had one serve. It is really filling!
Here's the recipe, if you guys want to give it a go:
VEGETABLE LASAGNE
SERVES: 6
POINTS PER SERVE: 4
PREP: 10 mins
COOKING: 30 mins
- 2 medium (900g) eggplant, cut into 2cm chunks
- 2 x 800g cans crushed tomatoes w/ basil
- 3 pieces lavash bread
- 500g WW cottage cheese
- 100g WW grated tasty cheese
- Preheat oven to 180C. Coat a large overproof baking dish (same dimensions as lavash bread, if can) with cooking spray.
- Coat a large saucepan/pot with cooking spray. Heat and add the eggplant. Cook, stirring until the eggplant begins to soften.
- Add the canned tomatoes. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Place one sheet of lavash into the base of the prepared baking dish and top with half the eggplant mixture. Top with a second lavash bread.
- Spread cottage cheese over the lavash bread.
- Spread the remaining eggplant mixture, lavash bread and cottage cheese over. Sprinkle with the grated cheese.
- Place in oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until cheese is melted.

I have never eaten eggplant. Maybe I am deprived?? have a great weekend!
I have never eaten eggplant either. I have tried quite a few different lasagne recipies and stuffed up every single one LOL maybe this one will be different...
Sounds absolutely divine. I was never a huge eggplant fan but now I will eat it if I get to roast it first. So I'll do that before putting it in to bake.
So when is your b'day chook. You are keeping close tabs on us but don't recall you mentioning. Mine is not for ages, but I'll be shouting it loud and clear because I absolutely adore birthdays - anyones :)
Have a fantabulous day (yep made that word up)
What does eggplant taste like? I've heard that you have to put lots of salt on it before you cook it...now that doesn't appeal to me at all!
I love Lasagne. Wish I had an oven to cook in (new kitchen going in soon!).
Have a great weekend
I can't believe how many people have not tried eggplant?? Very strange. It tastes kind of squishy and does not have a distinct flavour, much like squash but softer. I don't know about the salt addition, as I usually roast it with a bunch of vegies. Mmm. I think I need to do a bit of research on the good old eggplant.
Jaykay, what...no oven!? I hope the soon is going to be real soon! New kitchen sounds exciting though :-)
I have found eggplant to be bland but o.k. in dishes like this. I make a point friendly lasagne as well but with tomatoes, pumpkin and spinach or silverbeet.
*blush* thanks Mary, your support really means a lot -- not just the birthdya wishes but the genuine caring support! and your new pic is gorgeous :D
Love your hair Mary!!!
Love the new photo!!! Your hair is so straight!!
I will have to try this lasagne, although I'm not so keen on aubergine!
Sounds yum, will have to give this a try!
