Zucchini Noodle Lasagna

For this lasagna I started with a large zucchini and sliced it thin length wise.
In a baking pan I spread marinara sauce on the bottom and then slices of zucchini.
On top of the zucchini I added more marinara and a layer of vegan cheese.
I repeated this several times and baked at 375 until the zucchini became soft and the cheese melted.
I topped it with chives from my windowsill garden. When I make it again I'll probably add the basil growing in my window as well. It was delicious and best of all did not take a lot of effort which is how I like my recipes.

Easy as pie applesauce

I made applesauce for the first time! I'm very proud of myself and it was much easier than I thought it would be.

In a large pot I set 2 cups of water to boil.
I peeled and diced 8 apples and dropped them into the pot
1 cinnamon stick to boil with the apples and water, removed when apples are staring to get soft
I mushed the apples up with a large spoon and cooked for about 30 minutes
After I let it cool I served it up and sprinkled pumpkin pie spice on top.

That's it! No added sugar needed and you've got yourself homemade applesauce.
