This Green Pastures Ultimate F2T Lasagna is vegetarian (meatless), with 3 types of cheese, and has a carrot puree base with mushrooms.
Review
Positives:
For a meatless alternative, this was a big hit! It didn't have a "healthy" taste (meaning, it didn't taste like healthy food pretending to be edible), and for me, it was actually better than normal lasagna. The taste in itself is heavenly, to say the least.
This is also great for those of us with hyperacidity issues as the base isn't tomato sauce, and the carrot puree was creamy and smooth. The carrot puree's flavour is also amazing since it balances out how cheesy the lasagna is.
Negatives:
Although I'd be pretty biased to say that I loved this dish, it was a little on the heavy side (three cheeses?) and it took me two days to finish it because...
When I ordered it at the restaurant, the dish actually took forever to be served, and I'm not exaggerating. All the other food we ordered were served and eaten, and even after all that, we still had to wait for it for a few more minutes. And when it was finally, finally served, I was full from all the sweet potato fries I'd been munching on, which meant I only got to eat less than a quarter of the dish in the restaurant and packed up the rest in a doggie bag for breakfast next morning.
__________________________________________
All in all, this was a great dish! It wasn't light, but it was filling and very nutrient dense. The flavours are great and the dish somehow feels independent, it felt like it had its own flavours, not a copycat try-hard lasagna.
8/10 from me, only because it takes forever to cook and is a little too heavy for a single serving; great for sharing though!
Try it for yourself to find out!
