		Passover Lasagne
		Description
			This is easy and a very big hit. No matter how full my guests are from the previous evening's seder, no matter how they think they'll never eat another thing, they always end up having seconds of this dish.
		Ingredients
			12 matzas, slightly dampened 8 ounce package of farmers cheese 4 eggs 1 teaspoon nutmeg 1 pound mozarella cheese, grated 2 jars (approximately 24 ounces each) spaghetti or tomato sauce
		Preparation
			Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. You will need 2-9x13 - inch pans. In a medium bowl, mix together farmers cheese, eggs and nutmeg. Set aside. Pour a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of each pan. Place two matzas on top of the sauce. You can fill in the empty space with broken pieces. Next place a layer of the cheese mixture in both pans, using about 1/4 of the mixture for each pan. Sprinkle a small amount of mozarella cheese over the farmers cheese, then cover with a layer of sauce. Add another layer of matzas, then the remaining farmers cheese. Add another layer of sauce and a final layer of matzas. Cover the tops of the matzas with the mozarella cheese. Bake for about 45 minutes until cheese is nicely melted and browning. Serves 12 guests who claim they're not really hungry.

Matzah and Butter
The best matzah I remember from my childhood is eaten with butter and dark brown sugar. I can not have Pesach without my brown sugar and buy it already in the week after Purim, just to be sure!

I made Passover Kugel and it is delicious. Will make it during the year.

Anyone have any good Pesadik breakfast ideas?
My family is ready to rebel after too much matzoh brei. I make farfel granola, but any other recipes would be great!

Another old favorite , from my grandmother:Matzoh Jelly and Cheese
If Matzoh and butter is included you might want to include these:
Matzoh, Jelly and (Cottage) Cheese - and you can always substitute cream cheese (although cottage cheese is easier on the Matzoh's). No sugar added jelly (Contarary to the label of 1 major brand you will NOT find sugar free jelly).

One of my father's favorites was Matzoh, Mayo and onion!
