Pasta oh pasta!

Bonjorno!
first time, I made all three types of pasta dishes in one day,

Athira ordered this one big macaroni au gratin for makan2 at her kedai, thank you Athira.



A friend who happens to know that I was making the macaroni, requested me to make a smaller portion for her, thank you dear Balkis





SSince there was some minced meat left and I had some meat balls in the freezer, I thought why didn't I make spaghetti sauce with it. Plus, there was also some white sauce left fom the macaronii au gratin, I thought, hey I could also make lasagna, since I was already making the spaghetti sauce, and I also had the white sauce, just layer them with pasta for lasagna, I could make one for Ameer who had been asking me for lasagna for ages. I made sure to boil extra spaghetti for Batrisyia because she likes to eat it plain, on its own, without the sauce




A small portion of lasagna, layers of spaghetti sauce, and white sauce in between the sheets




sprinkled with mozarella cheese, lots and lots of them




I also made one small portion of macaroni au gratin for my kids,so yesterday afternoon, had spaghetti bolognese for lunch, and they had the lasagna for dinner, and that left the macaroni still untouched, could save it for later, just leave it the freezer, and whenever we feel like having it, just bring it out, thaw it, and bake it.

Bon apetit!

Ciao!
