    A lasagna that combines the best of Italian and Greek food. When I first started this blog, I created this website (obviously), a Facebook page and an Instagram. My goal was to have one random person make a recipe that I shared. While I don't know if that has happened yet, the only way to get the blog out there was to invite my friends to like it!

    So a couple of months ago, Meghan Ashley, became the 100th person to like our Facebook page. When I saw us reach 100 likes, it may seem like a small milestone but I still thought it was cool. Just for fun I said that her husband, Jim (a coworker of mine), and her were welcome over for a dinner of their choice for being our 100th like. While it took a little time to find a date that worked, we were able to get together.

    Once I found out her favorite food was Mediterranean, I was in a dilemma. While I like Mediterranean, I just don't make it that much. So I turned to my favorite food blog, Half Baked Harvest. I found a bunch of her recipes that fit the bill and sent them her way. What was chosen was a Mediterranean Lasagna (original recipe can be found here). I've said in the past I love one skillet meals and this one was no different. We loved it so much, we ate the entire Mediterranean lasagna in one sitting. Don't judge...

    One thing I have yet to mention is Meghan is an outstanding photographer. So she brought her camera over and helped document everything. So in case you noticed pictures that looked way better than normal, it's because I didn't take them. So thanks to Meghan for taking these awesome photos. I hope you give this recipe a try and enjoy!

    PS Lauren also made S'mores Cupcakes which we both believe might be the best cupcake we've had to date. Those will be shared in a couple of days.

    Because of the pictures I'm going to give some step-by-step instructions with the pictures as well.

    First you need to chop, the asparagus, sugar snap peas, green onions, olives and garlic cloves.

    Set aside everything except the sugar snap peas.

    Now you'll want to cook the sugar snap peas in a medium skillet with the sun-dried tomato oil for about 5 minutes.

    Add the rest of the veggies and cook for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and then remove from the skillet and set aside.

    While veggies are cooking you'll want to break up the noodles into quarters.

    You'll then want to boil the lasagna to al dente and drain and set aside.

    Add the butter back to the same skillet that you had the veggies in and cook the garlic for 30 seconds. Then add the flour and cook, whisking constantly for about 1 minute. Slowly add the milk and whisk. Cook for about 5 minutes or until thickened.

    Remove from heat and add the cheese and crushed red pepper and mix until melted.
