I'm a college student living in a cooperative house of 24 girls, and I have a recipe question. Friday I am supposed to cook black bean lasagne (a recipe I found in the last issue of Cooking Light) but have lost the magazine. I have all of the ingredients but none of the instructions. If anyone could please let me know how to find them, it would be greatly appreciated!

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 jalapeno peppers
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups chopped tomato
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 cans (15.5 ounces, each) black beans, rinsed
and drained
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 carton (8-ounce) reduced-fat sour cream
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 bottle (16-ounce) chunky salsa
Cooking spray
12 cooked lasagna noodles
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Directions.
The filling for this lasagna has a Southwestern flavor that's similar to that of black-bean burritos.

1. Preheat broiler.

2. Cut jalapenos in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes. Place pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet; flatten with hand. Broil 4 minutes or until blackened. Place in a zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 5 minutes. Peel and chop. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.

3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell peppers, and garlic; saute 6 minutes. Add tomato, cumin, and coriander; cook 3 minutes. Add jalapeno and beans; cook 3 minutes. Remove from heat; cool 10 minutes. Stir in cilantro, sour cream, and egg.

4. Spread 3 tablespoons salsa in bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange 4 noodles slightly overlapping over salsa, and top with half of the bean mixture, 1/2 cup cheese, and 3 tablespoons salsa. Repeat the layers, ending with noodles. Spread remaining salsa over noodles, and sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Cover and bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 15 minutes or until cheese melts. Let stand 5 minutes. Yield: 8 servings
