first, peel and chop a pumpkin (of around 500g) and two medium white carrots – don’t worry about the chopping so much because it’s all going to the pressure pan anyway with some pieces of pepper to add taste.

after it’s all cooked (with not much water). all u have to do is squash them, add 150ml of milk and slowly boil it till it becomes  creamy adding all your favourite spices (to change some bit since I’m regularly using garlic and onions, I chose leek, parsley and chive) and just before the cream is ready, put in some chopped spinach, and it’s done!

also, you can add some cheese if you want, mozzarella and parmesan would be my choice.

Next, you can either use cookies or some of that frozen pastry: just cut it in  strips and put it in the oven – you can brush a little bit of eggyolk to add some colour).

Chop any kind of fruit you want (I strongly reccomend canned peaches) and put it first in a pretty glass (presentation is half the eating experience, amirite?) then you pour some of that cream that is already cool by now, put one or two of those cookies or baked pastry on the side and you’re good to go! if you like, you can use jam as one of the layers, just don’t forget that it can make it very sweet, so watch out the balance of flavours so it doesn’t get too heavy. Also, you can sprinkle anything you want on top that matches the flavours, like limezest, or chocolate, or even smashing the cookie or the pastry or something like that and enjoy it!

The bottom line is that you should always ask for help when you need it and don’t know how to make it better by yourself; or at least let people know that you are not ok. The ones who care will get the message and help you out the best way they can.

cook some pepper and after a few minutes add garlic – when it starts to caramelize, add grated zucchini, white carrots and salt, turn the pan off and leave it aside too

you can use your favourite recipe of tomato and white sauce – I particularly prefer to use homemade sauce, the tomato one spiced with parsley, oregano and onions, and the white one made with corn starch, milk and grated cheese.

alternate layers of the lasagna dough of your preference and sauce with one layer of spinach and other of zucchini/white carrot

I particularly liked to add one layer of cottage cheese in between.

1 1/2 cup of white flour

1/2 cup of whole wheat flour

1 pot of natural yogurt

1 cup of milk

1 cup of sugar

the juice of one orange

15 grams of butter

1/2 cup of powdered soy extract

two teaspoons of baking powder

To be added only after you mixed everything above (but before putting in the oven):

Muesli (about two or three tablespoons)

one apple chopped in little cubes

time in the oven – around 45 min in 235 oC

This recipe is adaptable! Usually, ingredients vary from one place to another, and the amount of ingredients like sugar or eggs can be changed a little (if the egg is not so strong, add one more egg yoke and so forth…). Also, try to adapt it to your own taste: don’t put the sugar all at once, put some and see if it’s sweet enough for you.

Just remember to add the egg whites last to make it softer.
