Wild Mushroom and Spinach Habanero Lasagna munchies recipe

by Kris   ⋅   January 17, 2008   ⋅   Comment now

When the spinach e.coli outbreak of 2006 arose, I almost died. Died because I couldn’t eat spinach. I luuuuurve spinach; raw or sauteed, it’s so good.

I’ve been on a cooking/baking kick since Chris has begun Fall classes; gotta make sure he’s fed well! This is how much I loooove my hubby.. the other day I surprised him with homemade heart-shaped kabocha (japanese pumpkin)/pine nut/parmesano ravioli with browned butter and fried fresh sage.
