Before you jump to Lasagna recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Tracking Your Foods: The proper way to Do It.
When you begin your diet one of several things you will learn right away is that maintaining a food journal is very helpful. Keeping a food log makes it possible to identify the foods you are eating as well as the foods you are not eating. One example is that, after following your meals for a few days you could realize that you are consuming far too many sugars and unhealthy fats without nearly enough organic nutrients. Having it all written down can help you identify the aspects of your diet that need to change as well as how much exercise you need to get to make sure that you burn enough calories to keep your waistline in check.
Write down what time it is while you eat. This can help you find out what times of day you feel the most hungry, when you usually reach for snacks and then you can learn how to deal with those times. You'll see, for example, that although you eat lunch at the exact same time every day, you also--without fail--start to snack as little as an hour later, every day. You may also be able to determine when you are eating in order to have something to do. This is unbelievably valuable because knowing when you're vulnerable to snacking will help you fill those times with alternative activities that will keep you away from the candy aisle.
Record your mood whenever you eat. This can show you whether or not you use meals to solve emotional issues. This may also show you whether or not you gravitate toward certain foods based on your mood. There are lots of people who seek junk food when they feel angry or depressed and are equally likely to choose healthy things when they feel happy and content. When you focus on how you eat during your different moods and emotional states, you will be able to keep similar but healthier options around for when you need those snacks--you might also start talking to someone who can help you figure out why you try to cure your moods with food.

Instructions to make Lasagna:
- For Bolognese:.
- Grind onion, carrot and garlic, small but not to a paste.
- Put oil in big frying pan (enough to cover the whole surface), medium fire.
- Pour the ground vegetables and cook until carrot is tender (~5min).
- Add meat, let it cook a bit and then add the red wine (just enough to cover the meat, 1 glass should be enough but depends on your frying pan size).
- When red wine has been absorbed, add the stock cubes (or salt and pepper) and mix well.
- Add the passata di pomodoro, the concentrate tomato paste and the laurel leave. Cover the pan and let it cook in low fire until done (at least 1h).
- The Lasagna magic:.
- Heat oven at 170C (~340F).
- Rub butter all around the surface of your deep oven plate.
- Put a layer of dry lasagne pasta, one of bolognese, a bit of bchamel, a bit of the mozzarela di buffala and enough grated parmigiano to slightly cover the layer. Repeat until the oven plate is full (usually 3-4 layers). The top layer has pasta, then just bchamel and parmigiano on the top.
- Put in oven and let cook the time and heat the pasta instructions say (usually 170C/340F, 30 min, both up & down).
- Change to gratin mode for the last 5 minutes for an extra touch.
- If you can resist, leave it rest a bit after heating... Lasagna is better the more time the pasta has to absorb the bolognese ;).
