Cooking for the roleplayers part 1 (the wednesday group)

Soup: http://www.donnahay.com.au/recipes/885-potato-and-parmesan-soup-with-parsley-pesto/

This turned out very well indeed! Instead of making the pesto from the recipe I used store bought basil pesto and some toasted pine nuts. Instead of chicken stock I used store bought Campbells vegetable stock in a carton.



Main: I had a play with this: http://www.lifestylefood.com.au/recipes/1734/pumpkin-spinach-and-goats-cheese-lasagne
Instead of tomato passata I cooked up something akin to the tomato base for my Mediterranean eggs dish (which I shall post another time). I used baby spinach and found the proportions for the recipe didn't work out well, so I added lots more tomato base and some tasty cheese and gruyere (because I ran out of goats feta) but all in all not bad. Note that the slightly blury picture represents an acurate view of what the meal looked like at this stage of the evening :-)



Desert: I was getting a little sloshed by this stage so forgot to take a photo, but I'll be serving the leftovers tomorrow night so I'll detail it then :-)
