What a great idea for the lasagna. Are those plantain chips on your plate? Reminds me that I've really been meaning to give them a try. Report Inappropriate Comment

Ok now I'm interested. How does one make zucchini lasagna? I've made spinach lasagna with tomato sauce, spinach and cheese. How are you feeling on the Primal diet? Carol Report Inappropriate Comment

Doing a great job with the IF. I was not 100% primal today since I had some tortilla chips, but still not a grain so not too worried. Made up for it by having a grilled chicken salad for dinner. Have a great weekend! Report Inappropriate Comment
