    Cream substitute

    I can definitely agree with that. And in reality, the 2 3/4 cups IS spread between 8-10 servings, so is isn't that bad. We just wanted to see if we could make it even healthier without sacrificing on the flavor (at least not too much).

    Blender Uses

    Eggplant Lasagna please....

    Another really good option, is to find a vegetable lasagna recipe you love, and replace the noodles ENTIRELY with eggplant slices. Just slice them a little thinner than normal. Turns out great!! This is usually how my wife makes our lasagna.
