This is another meal that everyone in the family will eat, and although I seem to be ok eating gluten while I'm pregnant (no idea why because all the other times it makes me feel like crap) I still make the gluten free version. However if you aren't GF then it is easy to adapt back.
I don't have a recipe as such so just bear with me!
500g prime/premium mince, it has to be less fatty than normal mince otherwise it gets too watery
1 onion, diced finely (otherwise Harrison complains that there is onion in it!)
1/4 - 1/2 a crown pumpkin, steamed and mashed
1 jar GF tomato based pasta sauce, whatever flavor you like
1 packet GF lasagna sheets (there are various brands, just use your favorite)
Sliced mushrooms
1 sachet GF tasty cheese sauce (or make your own but I'm bloody lazy)
Extra grated cheese
Heat a small amount of oil in a large pan. Add mince and onion, stir until mince is brown and onion is soft. Add pumpkin and pasta sauce, here is your opportunity to add any extra veggies you want such as grated carrot or courgette or thawed frozen spinach.
Simmer gently for a while, sorry no idea how long!!
Take off heat and let cool slightly.
In a lightly greased baking dish ladle a spoonful of the mince mixture then top with sliced mushrooms and then lasagna sheets, continue layering, ending with the lasagna sheets.
Pour pre prepared sauce over the top and cover with grated cheese.
Bake at 180 until you can stick a skewer right through the whole thing, if it starts to get too brown then cover the top with foil or baking paper.
serve with a fresh green salad and some garlic bread (GF baps are good for this!)
This is a great way to get the kids eating extra veggies without realizing it too! My boys love mushrooms but if yours don't then you can dice them and add them into the sauce.
