In my previous opinion,
it's not really lasagne if there's no spinach in it. This recipe
lacks spinach, so I was prepared to mock it, but it's actually really
good, except for the time requirement. I hadn't read the fine print,
and while I had planned to prepare this on Sunday evening after my
Drive, the minimum-2-hours in the 'fridge meant supper would be
intolerably late; that's a big part of the reason I did Mashed
Potatoes with leftover turkey, instead. So, I assembled this lasagne
and put it in the 'fridge for the following day's supper.
I scaled the recipe
down by 1/3 (kinda, I used the full amounts of cheeses (roughly 1 kg
of cheese goes into this), because another opinion of mine regarding
lasagne is that it is a vehicle for cheese) but still ended up with
enough for multiple days of lunches. This is a recipe that falls into
the odd category of "Americans turning not-hamburgers into
simulacra of hamburgers", a transformation largely resting on
the bacon in this case. I also used a blob of parsely-goo from a tube
rather than fresh parsely because the minimum purchase of parsely is
enough for about a dozen copies of this recipe and I had no plans to
make any other recipes that call for parsely. I think I can keep this
tube in the 'fridge for a few weeks, which is better than the few
days that the fresh stuff stays fresh for.
