Earlier this week the kitchen in my office smelled like Indian food. I had a huge craving and then an idea for dinner that night. I already had roasted eggplant slices I made the night before.

So my idea was to make an Indian lasagna using the eggplant for noodles. I made my filling, but then got too hungry and impatient. I sliced up the eggplant and added it to my filling and thus ended up with Eggplant Curry and satisfied my craving.

Still in the mood for a veggie lasagna, a few nights later I roasted some zucchini slices. I layered them in a bread pan.

Added a filling…

Topped with nooch and baked for 30 minutes.

Patience pays off and I had myself a delicious gluten free, veggie-full lasagna.

And now a game! Can you guess what I’ve dipped in chocolate for Chase’s yummy Easter treat?

Happy Easter, everyone!!!!
All that delicious food and no recipe! Not fair. I would love to make that veggie lasagna. It looks amazing. There is something so good about a mix of healthful things baked together like that.
ReplyDeleteAs for the dipping- hmmm. I just wrote about nuts so that is where my mind is and so I am going to guess hazelnuts and cranberries.
Delicious looking veg lasagna!
ReplyDeleteThe first thing that came to mind when I saw the chocolate-dipped treats is chickpeas.
+1 on the chickpeas! good guess!
ReplyDeleteGORRRGEOUS casserole!!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing hazelnuts!!
That casserole looks amazing. And the treats? I'll second hazelnuts. Or cherries? Raspberries? Really, anything would be great because--IT'S DIPPED IN CHOCOLATE! :)
ReplyDeleteThey look like garbanzo beans...but in chocolate?!

The eggplant curry looks wonderful. And I had to laugh that you cut up the eggplant and added it - that's something that I would do! The lasagna looks great, too.
ReplyDeleteI think they look like chickpeas also.
ReplyDeleteI too thought chickpeas at first, and then thought "wait, that might be too weird...what else is shaped like a chickpea?" and landed on hazelnuts.
ReplyDeleteBut the more I think about it, the more I want to try chocolae-covered chickpeas...especially if they're roasted first in some sort of cinnamon-cayenne spice. Too weird?
if my home smelled like deeeelicious indian yummies i would want to gobble them all up sooner than later, too! the curry looks amazing and your veggie packed gluten free lasagna looks beautiful, Diann!
ReplyDeletei'm gonna guess blueberries! :)
great ideas for the lasagna! Like a sort of ratatouille but with Indian spices - I need to try that!
ReplyDeleteYou're the sweetest mumma making Chase homemade treats - I'm going with peanutbutter balls!
Wasabi peas??? (I'll bet that would be really good)
ReplyDeleteI really am craving that eggplant curry and lasagna!!
Your lasagna looks delicious, and I'd have to say that the chocolate covered treat is chickpeas!
ReplyDeleteThat Indian lasagna looks amazing. It must have smelled wonderful while cooking!
ReplyDeleteAs for the treats, chocolate covered cherries?
Hazelnuts?
ReplyDeleteThe lasanga looks yummy! It's just the way I like it-chocked full of veggies.
Roasted eggplant! horray!
ReplyDeleteI first thought hazelnuts but I'm also thinking chickpeas would be tasty because roasted chickpeas are mighty good.
I love your lasagna, it looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was cherries, but it isn't cherry season, so I have no idea. After reading everyone say chickpeas, I guess it does look like garbanzos!
I'm gonna guess that those are chocolate covered hazelnuts, but it really is tough to say!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for wildflower soap...I always bring home special bar soap when I visit Shelly, how did you know?? The candies were truely beyond amazing, really, the best ever. I saved one of the wrappers, just in case I need some more!! Hugs and kisses to you for your thoughtfulness. Love, Mamafish
ReplyDeleteMy first instinct was hazelnuts. Whatever they are, they look yummy!
ReplyDeletethe candy looks so yummy! I'm guessing hazelnuts too.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree, with almost every one here, my first impression was that they were chocolate covered chickpeas.. then I thought that would just be crazy.haha
ReplyDeleteso maybe they are hazelnuts?
Both of those meals look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI think those chocolates look like roasted chickpeas.
Love the lasagna! I think you made Chase, chocolate covered roasted chickpeas!!! Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteI guess hazelnuts.
ReplyDeleteAll of your food looks great, I really want that eggplant!
they really look like 'banzos! but I guess they are probably hazelnuts... because that would be a bit more normal, and probably yummier too. mmmm Either way, looks like you did a great job tempering your chocolate!
ReplyDeletePure deliciousness, as always! I love the veggie-full lasagna, it's just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMmmm... chickpeas? Hazelnuts? Oh, I know! Watermelons! :P

Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteAnd Indian lasagna?! Fuuuun... And great idea!
It certainly looks scrumptious! What kind of spices did you add to the filling?
ReplyDeleteNow you have me in the mood for a curry!
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was hazelnuts when I saw them... curious to see what they are. Hope yall had a wonderful Easter!
i think that is chocolate covered chickpeas or nuts of some kind....the chickpea idea is interesting, but i wonder how that would taste...hmmm
ReplyDeleteHazelnuts!
ReplyDeleteoooh! those looks like the peanut butter balls my mom used to make at christmas...mmm! or are they a nut of some kind... hazelnuts? i can't tell from the picture how big they are ;)
ReplyDeleteyour indian yummies and veggie-full lasagna look great!
I thought they were chickpeas too...but that sounded crazy, so um, I dunno. I can't wait to find out though.
ReplyDeleteThe veggie lasagna and curry look fantastic!!!
