One of Carrie Underwood‘s favorite meals to make is pretty “ugly.”
The singer cites one of her to-go meals to make at home is a veggie lasagna that she’s dubbed “ugly lasagna” due to its messy nature, but it’s packed with nutrients and yummy flavor.
The longtime vegetarian’s recipe calls for bell pepper, spinach, onion and vegan cheese, among any other vegetables the cook chooses to include. “The good thing is you can really throw literally any vegetables you have in your refrigerator in it,” Carrie explains. “I’ve used leftovers before…keep it colorful, it’s all good. Veggies are your friends.”
As for the “ugly” part, Carrie says the dish gets its name from the non-elegant way she spoons it onto her plate from the slow cooker. “When I get it out of the crock pot, it’s like a big ole pile of awesome on my plate,” she describes.
