Pomodoro is an Italian term for tomato.
Lasagna when not made with noodles/pasta, can be made with eggplant, zucchini (squash), and there is such a thing as lasagna bread.

OK, for us that don't get out very much, who's going to translate "g" into oz? :)

>>OK, for us that don't get out very much, who's going to translate "g" into oz?

the number is 30.

it's not exact to the nth decimal place, but

30 ml = one fluid ounce
or
30 grams = one avoirdupois ounce (ie weight)

is close enough to work in horseshoes.

Thanks IC and Dilbert. Those will help me when our English friends post a recipe. I do have a postal meter I use for cooking that will change from Lb and oz to oz only plus grams. It can convert only the weight on the scale though. I find it very useful in cooking since it will zero out a container, meaning if it is on and you put a bowl of cooking oil it will weigh the bowl and the oil. However if you will turn it off, then place the empty bowl on it before turning it on it will zero out the bowl and measure only the ingredient you pour into the bowl. Only goes to 3 Lbs but that has been fine for cooking.
