    I had trouble with eggplant the one time I tried it, but have been wondering how to make a lasagna without noodles, so I am going to try this. I also wondered about the cottage cheese, but will try it with ricotta, and may add a couple things like the mushrooms and see if I can handle that. - 2/17/20
