Chop amaranth and carrot tops or other greens into 1″ pieces, dicing stems. Mince garlic and onion, and pick basil\/oregano. Slice zucchini. Cook lasagna noodles in large pot, following package instructions. Do not trust “oven-ready” lasagna noodles–they’re not. Boil amaranth and carrot tops in medium pot until wilted, a few minutes for amaranth, several minutes for carrot tops; strain. Meanwhile, remove casings from sausages and saut\u00c3\u00a9 in oil with garlic and onions, breaking the sausage up. Stir regularly. When everything’s browned, add tomatoes, tomato sauce, zucchini, and boiled greens. Simmer until everything else is ready. In bowl, combine mozzarella, Parmesan, and basil\/oregano. When lasagna noodles are done, drain and rinse them in cold water.<\/span><\/p>\n \n In 9″x13″ pan, layer as following:<\/span><\/p>\n * 1\/2 red sauce<\/span><\/p>\n * Lasagna noodles (about 3)<\/span><\/p>\n * 1\/2 cheese mixture<\/span><\/p>\n * Lasagna noodles<\/span><\/p>\n * Remaining red sauce<\/span><\/p>\n * Remaining lasagna noodles<\/span><\/p>\n * Remaining cheese mixture<\/span><\/p>\n \n Cover with tin foil and bake for 45 minutes.
