Meh ... like vegetables with a cheese sauce over it.

I suspect you're thinking about this all wrong. Lasagne isn't simply about layering a couple of things with a sauce - it is more about layering of flavours and textures. You need a flavourful base, but you used stir-fried veg. Firstly, those veg are hardly the right combinations for a cheese sauce, and secondly they're pretty bland. You'd need to cook them into more of a ratatouille if you want more flavour. Secondly, just chucking garlic on it won't help. When you go the vegetarian route, you'll need to bulk it up with something, to make up for the meat. The easiest alternative here are mushrooms - lots of them, sliced and cooked down considerably.

Take that mushroom lasagne recipe I posted, tell me what your inhibitions are with it, or what ingredients you don't have, and we can try to come up with an alternative.

Also, are you using packet sauces for your cheese sauce? If so, I will refuse to help...:p
 
Tonight, something simple.

A large piece of lamb rib on the grill. Was browsing the PnP meat section when I saw this rogue packet of rib winking at me. I never see anyone or anything wink at me (except that other attractive coloured girl a couple of weeks ago) so I thought I'd better make a meal of it ... literally.

A small helping of biltong, two small pieces of kingklip and some leftover eisbein. It was nice at the time but I'm feeling a bit bleh now :(
 
Went out for supper to Wodka in Durban. Had the pork belly which was amazing.
 
Had some deeecent biryani takeout with garlic naan bread, was quite a bit hotter than usual but it was gooooooood!
 
16 Heinekens and 3 tequilas. And I can still hit these stupidly small, black, square things with shapes on them...
