Vegetable Lasagna #SundaySupper

Make Vegetable Lasagna a day ahead for an easy addition to your brunch menu. Fill the pan with no bake or conventional noodles, steamed veggies of choice, and a light Romano cream sauce.
Vegetable Lasagna

Welcome to another fun addition of Sunday Supper. Happy Easter!
I’m so happy to be hosting all these talented bloggers on a special Make Ahead Brunch event.
We’re just starting to get into brunch season. Easter, Mother’s Day, graduations, bridle showers and more focus on brunch.
Sooth these hectic events with some make ahead meals. Most consist of a quick warming and then it’s ready to go!
Lasagna is one of dishes where everyone thinks about taking a little bit. So let them take what they like. Never pre-cut a lasagna!
I know pre-cut portions intimidate me. I want to try everything, but just a bite of each. At least to start. 😉
Another great thing about this casserole is you can add any vegetables you want. You can even use up those odds and ends in the veggie crisper. I know there’s times I only have a little bit broccoli, a few carrots and maybe half a pepper in the veggie drawer.
A light white Romano sauce add a bit of sharpness to the dish.

Rack ’em Up! Cave Tools Wing Rack Review #AD

I received a free Cave Tools BBQ Wing Rack & Drip Pan to review. I received no further compensation. All opinions are my own.

wing rack

If you love wings but hate the hassle of constant turning and basting, then I have a product to show you!

Cave Tools Wing Rack and Drip Pan Works on your grill or in your oven or smoker. The rack holds up to 12 drums or wings.

wing rack

I chose to give the rack a test run in my oven. Chicken legs basted in BBQ sauce sounded pretty good to me!

It has a deep drip pan for catching all those delicious juices. The unit is dishwasher safe too.

As you can see, the skin self bastes and came out nice and crisp.

BTW the kit comes with a downloadable BBQ Cookbook to make several delicious BBQ sauces!

Manhattan Clam Chowder #SundaySupper

Manhattan Clam Chowder

Manhattan Clam Chowder serves tasty clams, potatoes, and vegetables in a slightly spicy tomato base. Serve with a salad or crusty bread.

I love clams. Can you dig it? 8) Sorry I couldn’t resist the pun.
This week Sunday Supper celebrates all things seafood with recipes from the deep blue sea.

Give us your BEST seafood recipes!

“There is SO much you can do with seafood! Whether it’s the catch of the day or shellfish like crab, shrimp, or lobster, seafood has a lot to offer. Baked, broiled, seared, fried, pan-fried, or even fresh raw fish — seafood can be cooked any number of ways, or not at all! Just about every culture out there has its own staple seafood dish — think calamari, fish tacos, or, of course, sushi and sashimi!”

 

Thank you Claire McEwen of Sprinkles and Sprouts for hosting our event!
We eat shellfish on a weekly basis. Mostly shrimp and scallops with the occasional clams or mussels. Sometimes it all comes together like in this Seafood Scampi I made for New Year’s Eve.
My Mom told me stories of when she would go “clamming” in Delaware and dig up dozens and dozens for a beachside clambake. That was in the 1950’s. What fun, digging for your dinner!
The clams in today’s recipe were much easier to come by. I think the cans were in aisle 7! 😉

The clam chowder wars have been going on for as long as I can remember. White or Red? Pick one. Which one you chose supposedly said something about you. As for me, I like them both. After all it is about the clams, right?

Manhattan Clam Chowder

Manhattan Clam Chowder packs clams and veggies in one flavorful bowl. I hope you agree.
