Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces lasagna noodles use certified gluten free, if needed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 sweet onion diced
  • 1 lb mushrooms chopped
  • 4 cups marinara sauce or other sauce
  • 2 12 ounce packages silken tofu
  • 1 cup fresh parsley
  • 2 cups chopped spinach I used frozen
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • Optional Vegan cheese to top

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and cook according to package directions.  Drain, and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a sauce pan, heat the olive oil on low.  Add the garlic and onions, and sauté for 6 to 7 minutes until they begin to soften.  Add the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 5 minutes with the lid on.  Stir in the tomato sauce, and allow too gently simmer on the stove.
  • In a large bowl, add the tofu, parsley, spinach, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt.  Use your hands to mash all the ingredients together until the mixture resembles a ricotta-like texture.
  • Grease a large 13x9 baking dish, and begin to layer the ingredients.  A scoop of tomato sauce on the bottom, layer of noodles, layer of tofu spinach mixture, and another layer of sauce.  Layer in this order until the dish is full (I had about 3 layers in mine).
  • Top with sea salt and pepper, and vegan cheese if desired.
  • Bake for about 40-45 minutes until vegan cheese melts on top and the sauce is bubbling up on the sides.
  • Remove from oven, and enjoy hot. Serve with side salad and crusty garlic bread.
