Goomba and I do. I mix a couple into the ricotta/parm cheese
layer. I think it holds the flavor & layer together and makes it
richer.
But obviously there are lots of ways to just leave them out. It's
lasagna-- there are no rules.

But >>> it contains eggs. And I'm allergic to eggs.
Or at least there are not so many rules as it would seem here. Eggs might
be only in fresh pasta, too. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of
distinctly different lasagne, most of which don't have eggs other than in
possibly the pasta. My two favorites, artichoke and asparagus lasagne,
don't.
I would just let her eat the frozen junk once a month. I feel sure that it
could take years to copy it sans egg and still not please the princess.

It's not *my* newsreader that is broken. Most people's posts show up
correctly. Some do not. And I'm not about to go into each of those and put
the greater than signs on every line. This is why I put the three dashes.

She didn't phrase the question correctly.
The question is whether one uses beaten egg in their ricotta mixture
when they make lasagna.
I never made lasagna until I was in college. I worked in one of the
offices on campus and I asked two motherly types how to make lasagna.
Both were of Italian heritage. One told me to mix the ricotta with a
beaten egg, it helps to bind the shredded cheeses together with the
ricotta. One told me she didn't bother with that step.
Over the years, I have made it both ways. It will "work" either way.
It just depends on what you like.
I have to say that I prefer the texture of the lasagna with the beaten
egg mixed into the ricotta. It makes the ricotta layer more of a
"layer", less like blobs of cheese randomly placed between the pasta
and sauce.
But obviously if you can't eat eggs, just leave it out. There texture
will be different, but the lasagna will certainly work. The quality of
the cheeses you use is more important than whether you add a beaten
egg to the mixture. and the quality of the sauce, of course, too.

Ack! That Windows Live is soooo annoying. I used to use MSN Messenger. I
won't use it any more because it is suspect after I got that virus on my
computer. Anyway... The last time I did an update (probably 2 years ago),
it tried to put my mail through Windows Live Mail. I got it corrected and
back to Outlook Express, but it changed the association of the .eml files to
it. As a result, I could not view such files. Luckily only one person ever
sent me such files. Has to do with the way her e-mail is sent through
CompuServe. It took me until just last week to get the problem solved. I
tried and tried to reassociate those files but it just wouldn't work. Then
I downloaded a .eml viewer in an attempt to read her mails. That was a pain
in the patoot to use and I was only ever able to get it to work once. Alas,
this person is the type that forwards anything and everything that comes her
way and frankly I don't even want to see 95% of what she sends me. But she
wound up getting angry with me because *I* couldn't read her mail. I could
not get her to see that the problem was with the way she was forwarding the
mail. Now it is finally fixed.

Can you tell me where in the OE addon Quotefix for MS clients, it fixed Mac
issues?

the cheese to make it more solid. Or have it less solid.
