Seven Cheese Lasagna - The TwixtBetwixt Version!

[ladyg0726]

To give my lasagna a more hearty flavor, I usually use browned Italian sausages with the casings removed,. I also substitute large curd cottage cheese instead because it has a fabulous flavor. I also use spinach combined with the cheeses and a touch of nutmeg with egg. As for the sauce, I use a canned sauce that has no sugar. I am not fond of sweet sauces--it distorts the integrity of the dish. I sometimes use muenster along with smoked gouda, mozzarella, parmesan, romano--etc.

[BRONXPEPE]

that looks good and that is a good idea to make it in to smaller cooking dishes

[toxicKt]

My boyfriend is weird about tomatoes too...LOL I hear american beauty in the background!

[levanoferest]

[AikiAnni88]

I made this a couple days ago and it was SO GOOD. Thank you for this recipe!

[kapkone]

is this a homage to Nigella Lawson?

[EternalForsythia]

:::

I really love all of your cooking videos. I hope there are more to come!

<3

[nakovac]

I was able to find 100% whole wheat lasanga noodles and will be making it tonight, yum!

[cliftonslover4ever]

hey just a lil tip with the ricotta cheese lol. you should just squeeze the container and it should just fall out :]

[twixtbetwixt]

I usually do that - but this one was being stubborn.

[SALAMISANDWICH]

Or you can assmeble it the day before and by the time your ready to cook it the noodles are aleady soft from absorbing the liquid. Cooking time is the same. It is SO much easier this way. They also make "no cook" noddles too if you can find them.

[Luvtakingpics]

EverytimeI make lasagna and I cooked the noodles they ALWAYS break apart and stick together. lol so annoying

[twixtbetwixt]

Do you ever try it with uncooked noodles? I used to make it that way every time & it still came out perfect. They just absorb the liquids from the sauce & tomatoes & cook in the oven. I think it's best to use a bit sloppier sauce/tomato mixture if you do uncooked noodles. =)

[Luvtakingpics]

No but I should try that seems like it would be alot easier. With uncooked noodles the cooking time would be longer right?

[twixtbetwixt]

No i don't think it takes any longer to bake them uncooked. I'd start with an hour & then stab it with a knife. If the knife goes through easy & smoothly, then it's probably done.

[jerrybob18]

I was already drooling over the lasagna, and then I hear Bob Dylan in the background. :D Great video!

[MizzC88]

humm this looks good

[GiulyReiner]

You have to taste the real Italian lasagne, :) they are real light. the pasta should not boil, but you must soak in hot water just for 5 seconds, otherwise after baking in the oven spring will be too too soft.. :) bye

[wickedgirl155]

WHAHAHAHA AMERICAN BEAUTY ON THE BACKGROUND!! "You don't mind doing it Carolyn?!" My god, I love that movie!!

[iwedmakeup]

AMAZIN.. i dont like chunky tomatoes or onions either! ill b sure to try this out.. i love ppl who cook and enjoy doin it!

[tambixcorexbeauty]

My boyfriend will be gone for a portion of this summer, when he comes back we're planning a big date. Maybe we'll stay in and I'll cook him this lasagna. : ) It's his favorite food.

[abdullahasif123]

Yummm,.....Yummm

[urparadise90]

you inspired me to cook... this would be my first time making lasagna, whish me luck! lol

[Annemieters]

goooooood luck!

[blackhearted04]

my stomach growled watching this ! lol! i love watching you cook!

[x1MissWorld1x]

oh wow.. this looks sooooooo yumm!! I'm so making this! :D thanks so much for the recipe!

[CarnivoraDoll]

fuck yes real food, that's what i'm talking about!! nom nom nom

[x0xKissMyConversex0x]

ooh haha. sorry. i see now. :]

[teknokitty69]

my mouth was watering the whole time. yumm!

[luv5955]

it looks sooooooooo yummy :D

[Gothik79]

But my brother in law (100% italian) doesn't like to see the garlic or taste big pieces of it. We used to use jarred sauce but since my sister dated/married her hubby it's been fresh sauce for about 9 yrs now and it's so good....just a suggestion!

No need to all day cooking (spaghetti) sauce)

[Gothik79]

Sorry, also you should try making your own sauce in stead of the Francesco Rinaldi one. You used Cento and that's awesome....just chop up some onions and cook those in olive oil til transluesent then use those Cento tomatoes in the blender and once it's a sauce add to onions add salt/parm cheese or pecorino romano cheese and once it's warmed thru it's done! I add garlic after the onions.

[Gothik79]

Thanks! I <3 that American Beauty is on!

[Sassafras72]

Thanks for your version. :) I will have to try it. I also saw up there in the comments other variations I might have to try. :D This looked so yummy!

[kamchau0327]

If I ate that....I`m gonna grow loads and loads and loads of pimples and like....gain 10 pounds or something ;P

But I love your cooking video! And when you said WTF...I couldn`t help myself stop laughing LOL

[twixtbetwixt]

haha well, it's not like I'm eating the entire pan full! ;) That's multiple servings for multiple people in just one pan! So, really not that bad - especially if you combine it with a salad or veggies.

[ripleycute]

Holy moly I'm loving that you're doing cooking videos!!!! I'm loving this recipe!!!!! I'm gonna try it, it looks so scrumdidilyumptious!!!!!!!!! :D

[jenGeeJushawshee]

I love your theory on fat in the diet....so many ppl are way off on that!

[x0xKissMyConversex0x]

so this might be personal, but, are you pregnant? Trust me, its not about weight, Im a big person hehe. but its probably just the camera angle.

[twixtbetwixt]

haha OMG NOOOOO, you see my HIP & the top of my thigh/leg, not my stomach! My stomach is pretty flat actually. Plus I have on a black shirt & dark blue jeans, so it's hard to tell what's what. I have a 32" waist - which for a size 14/16 is pretty fucking nice I'd say ;)

[LovePeaceandLipGloss]

Pretty fucking nice indeed! LMAO!

xxG

[aprillee01]

sloppy means good!

[reddhalia]

Taste it and yummy! I look forward for more of your recipes. :)

[flamiejowers]

i've never had this before... it looked extremely yummy though!!

[LexiJane1990]

omgosh! i love you, this is awesome!!!

[omggitscarol]

sloppy mess or not it looks yummy =)

[CHAOTICLOVE212]

Why do you add eggs to the cheese mix?

It looks very yummy.. you made me hungry!!

[jcb0818]

oh my god!!! that looks too good to be real. what time's dinner???

[lucyindublin]

LOVE the cooking videos! Thank you :-)

[coaxialflutter]

I haven't read through all the comments yet so I don't know if you've addressed this or not. When you don't pre-cook the noodles do you add more water to the pan you bake in? I've never tried it but recipes usually say to add water to the pan to keep everything moist if you have uncooked noodles in there.

[twixtbetwixt]

I never added extra water. I pretty much make it exactly the same & the juices from the tomatoes & sauce hydrate the noodles just fine ;)

[SinderellaX3X3]

YUM!! As a vegetarian, this is what I absolutely label as my favorite dish..Thx for your version Twixt. =]

[CalicoCatMissPeachs]

Before you know it you will be on the food network..nice job

[Teddybabe1]

This looks so good. I love cheese but never made an all cheese lasagna I have to try this.

[swatsch]

i love your cooking videos :D

[soeccentric]

omgish you are so talented gurl i love you :)

[suripopje]

I love your foodie blogs as well. A little change from the make up mania which I love BTW. And I agree on your no nonsense approach to food, calorie counting and fat extracting really actually suck the fun out of food and life for that matter!

[cutieciara444]

wow, looks good...i thought YT doesnt let vids be ova 10 min...how did u make it 14,lol

[makeupbynumbers]

she is a partner and they can make their videos longer

[MissToxicLove]

This looks yummy:D Would be

even better with a layer of cut veggies!

like Onions,GreenPeppers,RedPeppers­,

Zuchinni,Carrots=More vegetarian style:]

[TwinkletOes24]

hey toxic love :) ...i agree...roasted red peppers mmmm

[Churumbelita]

You should do more cooking videos, they're really great!

I could hear American Beauty in the background. :)

[Bonescan]

*drool*

[Purrrsuasive1]

I wonder if Whole Foods carries speghetti sauce with no high fructose corn syrup? Looks yummy! So you cook and do good makeup! Lets get married :-)

[Fatima0046]

I love your food tutorials, i love making food my self so always good with some new ideas!

[bbbblazin2802]

LMAO "I don't mean gorging yourself on chunks of butter" LOL I love it.

Looks great. I might have to try this! i love cooking videos! My best friend is a vegetarian so I bet she'd like this, I never know what to make when she comes over

I never thought to freeze peppers and onions, but what a good idea!!!!!!!!!

[twixtbetwixt]

If you want to "spice" up the veggie lasagna add in diced carrots, broccoli & spinach! It's very good that way. Even zucchini, eggplant, or mushrooms are great.

I used to make a low-carb "lasagna" with egg plant slices instead of noodles. Then layers of meat sauce & cheese. So it was almost like a egg plant parmigiana or something, but layered.

Of course you can use veggie burgers too for added texture. I was going to for this one, but the ones I bought were nasty & not my usual brand. ;)

[bbbblazin2802]

ohhhhhh that all sounds good. I love eggplant I might have to try layering that great idea!!!

Spinach is soooooo good, and broccoli! Yummmm!!!!! And every once in a while, even though I eat meat, it feels good to do a veggie meal! Just as filling and so much healthier!

[Torneh]

that looks so yummy.

[KaymmelF]

american beauty, (in the background, also my fav movie!) amazing food & makeup...your just too god damn amazing!!!

[DarkDeadBeauty]

here here for that no fat free crap!! i noticed sometimes the taste is funny. the cheese opening part was fuckin' funy!!! lol mmmmmmmmm looks sooo good, i freakin' loooooove cheese!!! ^_^

[nottambula79]

My mother do it with meat and "béchamelle". I find a good idea to do it with cheese! :-D Brava!! from Swiss-Italy

[shakyholic]

looks so yumy ;D more recipes pls :D

[Tedquin]

Looks good :)

[DivaOnADiet]

i fucking hate high fructose corn syrup! My baby is 12 mos and shes never had a taste of that crap and never will. My husband hates chunks of tomatoes too, damn ur appliances are amazing!

aww u made ur bf's plate, ur a good gf, i never make my hubbys plate, that looked sooo good!

[twixtbetwixt]

I don't understand why there is sugar & high fructose corn syrup in everything!? It's SO unnecessary!!

Keep the corn by-products out of my food, please! The only time I wanna see corn in my food is when it's like actual corn on the cob or whole corn kernels!! Otherwise, no! LOL ;)

[TwinkletOes24]

where did you get your pasta sauce? Ive never seen that brand b4 i like it bc of the no salt and corn syrup i agree leave the corn out of my food damnit.

I need to come to your house to eat the food you make is so bad ass...too bad my family wont anything good for you bc they are southern nuff said LOL fried chicken everyday NOT good for you.

[twixtbetwixt]

Sorry, didn't see your question sooner! :(

I buy this at the local grocery store (ACME). It's the "no salt added" one.

[boncil99]

oh yezzz, only real food taste yummier!!! thanks gal :)

[Seesk8]

American Beauty makes a lovely backdrop for cooking lasagna :o)

[Roxyrachel91x]

I LOVE watching you cook, I never really seen anyone do cooking tutorials before. Keep doing them. I like that you eat REAL food too!

[heartsthatdie]

[MakeupJunkie108]

[AlwaysWishing1983]

I fix mine alot like this. I use cottage chesse too. Yeah WITH the rocoa! Well also beef Sorry!

Sometimes I add mushrooms [good meat substitute!!!]] and celery. Gaa sooo good. I'm far different from your BF I buy the whole can of tomatoes and just barely cut them. Chuck them in....ommm

Try stuffing peppers with all this too! [no noodles]

I was going to post a vid of me making my BBQ baked chicken and I couldn't do it. I chickened out?

Enjoying your vids!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

[twixtbetwixt]

I love cottage cheese in my lasagna too!

And I love chunky tomatoes. But I get so irritated when i see a plate of tomato chunks cuz my bf claims there are too many in there ;p I'm like "Just fucking EAT THEM!" hahaha

I havent had stuffed peppers in a long time! I should make some!! ;)

And i think you should go ahead & make your BBQ chicken video ;)

[ugh834]

[SuffocatexMe]

[twixtbetwixt]

You can totally skip all the sauce - i just like it that way ;) You can also use a white cheese sauce instead of tomato sauce. Or a combination of both!

[hillarymraz]

yumm!

[skippygerg]

are you vegetarian?

i am

i have been trying to find a good no meat lasagna recipe

and this looks delicious i am defiantly making this soon!

[twixtbetwixt]

You can add diced veggies to it also! Like carrots, broccoli, spinach... whatever you like! ;) Spinach is always excellent in lasagna!

[Missbehavin21]
