Subject: Old Lasagna recipe request
Dear Uncle Phaedrus,
I'm a pretty good searcher myself but have yet to come up with this recipe from
the mid seventies. It was called Chili Lasagna and was published in a women's
magazine sometime between 1974-1981. My best guess is 1975 as I don't think I
had children yet, but I could be wrong. The recipe called for several different
cheeses but no ricotta or cottage cheese and a healthy amount of chili powder
(1/4 cup)? I have tried to re-create it but I am doing something wrong.
The magazines I read at that time were Women's Day, Family Circle, and Good
Housekeeping. I have tried all of their current websites and came up empty.
Hope you can help, my husband still talks about that lasagna and I would love
to make it for him.
almost forgot, the recipe did not include anything like chili beans, or canned
chili of any sort. Those recipes I have found hundreds of.
Thank you for your efforts,
Jeanne
Hi Jeanne,
