Was surfing for some good things to cook, and came across some GREAT recipes in Cosmopolitan magazine, here was my FAVORITE!
Easy Double-Date Dinner
Instead of eating out for your next foursome, have another couple over, and show off your cooking skills. This isn’t the time to get fancy with soufflés and beurre blanc sauces — fix a meal that can be made mostly ahead of time so your guy isn’t left to entertain while you spend all night avoiding kitchen disasters.
Lasagna Spirals
Lasagna can be time-consuming, but these spirals are done in a snap! Even better, the individual servings look so elegant.
1 teaspoon olive oil
10 lasagna noodles
1 pound ricotta cheese
1 10-ounce package chopped frozen spinach, thawed (squeeze out water)
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
6 basil leaves, chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 garlic clove, minced
½ teaspoon each salt and pepper
4 cups tomato sauce
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add olive oil. Cook noodles 7 to 8 minutes. Drain. Mix ricotta, spinach, mozzarella, basil, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread 1 cup tomato sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Spread each noodle with a layer of ricotta mixture, then roll up and place seam side down into the dish. Top spirals with 1½ cups tomato sauce and ½ cup Parmesan cheese. Bake 20 minutes. Serve with extra sauce and cheese on the side.
