BEEF LASAGNE ... AT LAST

I am making the Beef Lasagne from the HD's cookbook. It is in the oven at the moment ... and it smells fantastic.

Get ready for the photo ...

1770 calories (5 serves) in this whole dish
As I mentioned. I ditched the idea of a dinner group due to lack of interest.

My pursuit of weight loss continues, despite birthday parties and footy final celebrations.

Averaging a tad over 2000 calories per day, I haven't lost weight. Importantly ... I haven't gained weight and my blood sugar levels are down to 12-15 mmo/L ... which is a welcomed reduction.

It shows me that I have to do better with calorie reduction.

As for how the Lasagne tastes ... FAN-BLOODY-TASTIC ! 

And BIG servings too !

Well done Si & Dave ... I'll make this my standard lasagne recipe from now on. Blanching and drying the leeks is a bit fiddly, but so worth it.
