11 monthiversary

Buddy man! 11 months have come and gone, time sure flies these days. You continue to be a shining light in our lives and bring so much joy to our days. You started swim lessons this month, got tooth number 8, are literally running now and played outside with the neighbor kids like a big boy. Your first Valentine's day you enjoyed brunch with Cassandra Mendoza, grandma Vinceena Irgens and gramps Larry Irgens. Unfortunately you had to visit the Dr for another cold and had your first (hopefully last) breathing treatment. Went to your first friends birthday party and played on the park equipment like a champ. We went on a hike as a family and you slept through it, too cute. Love you little peanut, how can it be we will be having your first birthday party less than a month from now. You are literally my ❤ on the outside of my body. Xoxoxo little boy #kacmonthiversary

Salt Lake City Cousin/Aunt Visit

So this weekend we were lucky enough to have a quick visit from Braden, Dylan and Emily for Braden's gymnastics meet at Stanford Sunday morning.  We had lots of laughs, firsts, good food and some great tumbling.  Couple good pictures out of the visit as well.  Enjoy and we can't wait to see them again soon (hopefully the whole crew next time).

Skillet Lasagna Recipe

Skillet Lasagna

No boil lasagna noodles (I used 10)

Spicy Italian sausage that crumbles when you cook it no casing

Raw baby spinach (square box from the salad section)

Ricotta cheese (15 oz container)

Shredded mozzarella cheese small pre shredded cheese

2 cans of diced tomatoes (1 olive oil and garlic, 1 basil and garlic)

2 eggs

Minced garlic

Salt and pepper

Dried basil and parsley

Instructions

Sauce - In a sauce pan warm the 2 cans of tomatoes, don’t drain. Salt and pepper to taste and a teaspoon of minced garlic.  Once it boils for a few minutes, blend it with an emersion blender or put it in the regular blender, blend until almost smooth or however you like your sauce.

Meanwhile in a medium bowl mix the ricotta cheese, 2 eggs, salt and pepper and basil and parsley to taste.  Mix well.

Brown the Italian sausage in the skillet you will make the lasagna in and remove it from the pan.  I used a skillet about 10” diameter. 

Put in some of your sauce to cover the bottom of the skillet.  Put down noodles to cover the sauce (I used 2.5 noodles).  I think put about half the sausage down, covered it with a healthy layer of spinach, remember it wilts down to a lot less than it starts out.  Then put down a layer of the ricotta mixture, sprinkle with a layer of mozzarella as much as you may like.  Put a few dollups of sauce on the mozzarella followed by another layer of noodles, sausage, spinach, ricotta mixture, mozzarella and sauce.  Finish with a final layer of noodles, coat with sauce, sprinkle with mozzarella and a small bit of leftover sausage.

Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes.  Enjoy J
