Cajexitalian? Did I make up a new cuisine?
Ok so it really tasted much better than it looks. And by no means is it "healthy". It is what started off as a Cajun-style lasagna but what then through a series of unfortunate events (not planning, not shopping for vegetable...) It ended up with a new Mexican flair of chili beans and corn. I started off with some leftover red sauce from our pasta two nights ago and added it to the pan with the first layer or no-bake noodles. I then sauteed Andouille sausage, red onion, and green peppers in a skillet. Once that was done I added a red pepper alfredo sauce that I had laying in the back of the cupboard. Mixed the ricotta with cajun seasonings and layered the Andouille mixture first, noodles, corn, beans, ricotta, noodles, sauce. Baked it for 40 minutes at 350 and had a tasty meal with about 20 min of actual work, not bad for a weekday dinner. Plus we had FF, sugar free Jello with FF cool whip for dessert. (something had to be healthy) Stay tuned for this weekend which will hopefully be a cooking extravaganza with recipes.
