We all love lasagne, but for some of us it can be just too calorific. Our member Georgia has come up with a great low calorie and vegetarian version, that will most definitely satisfy that urge for some cooking like ‘Mama used to make!’
Roasted aubergine, tomatoes, peppers and garlic combine to give a rich, sweet taste, whilst the use of half fat creme fraiche reduces the calories in place of the regular bechamel sauce.
