Catelli recently launched a new Gluten Free Lasagne as well as Catelli Gluten Free Linguine in Canada!
Not only is this a gluten free lasagna that tastes like white pasta it is an oven ready noodle. No need to boil the pasta first. It is also made from a unique 4 grain blend of white rice, brown rice, corn and quinoa.
I was sent a case of gluten free lasagna noodles to try and was also encouraged to come up with a new recipe. That was an easy assignment for me.
Who does not like lasagna?
Lasagna was also a family favourite when the kids were younger for it was a great way to fill up teenagers ever-empty stomachs.
Lasagna is also a sneaky way of getting your kids to eat more veggies.
Want to know how?
I call it shredding!
A food processor is fantastic at shredding veggies and is a great way of replacing half your meat in a recipe with veggies. In fact, when my kids were younger I used to shred up mushrooms and sauté them in olive oil and not use any meat at all in my lasagnas. Guess what?
No one knew. The mushrooms resemble ground beef when sautéed first and added to pasta sauce.
Maybe I should have called this recipe “A Sneaky Way to get your kids to eat more veggies lasagna.”
I used shredded mushrooms and carrots in this recipe. Carrots add a nice sweetness to the lasagna too.
Not only am I sharing a gluten free lasagna recipe with you all I am also doing a contest too.
Catelli is offering to give away one full case (12 boxes) of Catelli gluten free lasagna to one of my lucky followers.
Contest is only open to Canadians (excluding Quebec) this time.
