I will be making this soon. I was thinking of this recipe last night while grocery shopping, and then – BAM! – asparagus was on sale. I will be making this soon.

(Well, that and I have a CSA box full of SO MANY VEGGIES every week and I have to use them somehow.) I've tried it with eggplant, too, with mixed results - my eggplants were a little mushy so it didn't stay together as well, but fresher eggplant might work and I intend to find out. @la_di_da Me too – this is exactly why I do this.

I feel like I eat so many carbs all the time--cause they're super cheap. I'm always looking for a way to replace noodles and bread. @ThatJenn Win!

(I use a cheese slicer, there's one on my cheese grater.) Now you do! I make it this way all the time now. It actually holds together even better than the noodley lasagna, and is gluten-free, if that's a thing you or anyone you cook for cares about. Plus you don't have to boil noodles, use the stovetop at all, or buy that weird no-boil lasagna noodle stuff (I don't trust it on instinct alone). Sorry, I guess it might be rude to jump in on a recipe with "here's a way I would do it differently" depending on your feelings. I just always love new cooking ideas, myself, and was so excited when I discovered that one.

I put nuts (walnuts or pecans, whatever I have) in that lasagna, so it is decidedly unusual, but in an amazing way. I bet leeks would be good with it as well. @Keck I make a white lasagna with squash sometimes and it is delicious.
