This creamy silken tofu ricotta for lasagna is great for any dish or filled pasta. This dairy free ricotta recipe is high protein and hearty. A great lasagna filler, amazing to add to plant based ravioli, or great for a filled pasta like stuffed shells or manicotti.
Add all ingredients to a medium mixing bowl. With a fork, mash the tofu and stir all in ingredients together until well combined, and the tofu has the consistency of ricotta cheese.
Alternatively you can mix in a blender or food processor for a smoother texture- but I found the ricotta to have the best texture when hand-mixed in a bowl.
