LASAGNA WITH SPICY ROASTED CAULIFLOWER
Now that I've discovered how delicious roasted cauliflower is and how easy it is to do it, that's the only way I want to cook it. It might be difficult to abstain from eating the cauliflower before you've gotten it into your lasagna.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut away the bottom of the cauliflower stem and trim off the leaves. Cut the cauliflower into slices 1/3 inch thick, letting the florets on the edges fall off. Toss all of it, including the bits that have fallen away, with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on the baking sheet in an even layer. Roast for about 15 minutes, stirring and flipping over the big slices after 8 minutes, until the slices are tender when pierced with a paring knife and the small florets are nicely browned. Remove from the oven, toss with the red pepper flakes and set aside. Turn the oven down to 350 degrees.
- Blend the ricotta cheese, water or stock, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Oil a rectangular baking dish and spread a spoonful of tomato sauce over the bottom. Top with a layer of lasagna noodles. Spoon a thin layer of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Top with a layer of cauliflower, then a layer of tomato sauce and a layer of Parmesan. Repeat the layers, ending with a layer of lasagna noodles topped with tomato sauce and Parmesan.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and place in the oven. Bake 40 minutes, until the noodles are tender and the mixture is bubbling. Uncover and, if you wish, bake another 10 minutes, until the top begins to brown. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

CAULIFLOWER CHEESE LASAGNA
This is an all in one meal perfect for vegeterians ( omit ham). The good thing about this lasagna is that you will only need an ovenproof lasagna dish and a pot for boiling the vegetables. Serve with a leaf salad and crusty bread.
