    Thanks, I rarely eat fish except when I go to a restaurant that doesn't have anything a vegetarian can eat. I am a fool for Maine lobster, but haven't had one in years. :( But no meat at all, there are so many fake meats now and they are so close to the real thing, even hot dogs, that they keep me satisfied. I am training a horse right now, and he takes most of my time and ambition, so we have been eating lots of vegetarian quick meals. But I am a lover of Italian and Greek foods and as soon as I find time and energy left over, I intend to go back to cooking. Hope you enjoy the Florentine Lasagna, we think it's close to Olive Garden.
