Jocelyn Campbell of http://www.jocelynsevents.com makes a nettle lasagna. It's a lot like other lasagna, but the hamburger is replaced with stinging nettles. I thought it was an excellent lasagna. The best part is that a picky 15 year old eats the nettle lasagna.

Jocleyn starts off showing how to harvest some nettles for the lasagna.

The layers in the lasagna recipe (starting at the bottom): sauce, gluten free lasagna noodles, nettles, ricotta, mozerella, parmesan, more sauce (with shitake mushrooms), lasagna noodles, ricotta, mozerella, lasagna noodles, sauce, parmesan on top.

This turns out to be a vegetarian lasagna.

Jocelyn explains that the cooking time for the whole lasagna is 30 minutes and that she takes back the foil a few minutes before the end.

Just one layer of nettles in the lasagna this time. A previous lasagna had two layers.

Some friends come over for dinner and express their comments on the lasagna.
