Try this delicious and satisfying veggie lasagna with tofu and cheesy goodness for any day of the week.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (16 ounce) package dry lasagna noodles
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 4 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1 (15 ounce) container part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 0.5 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 4 ounces silken tofu
  • 2 large carrots, shredded
  • 2 medium zucchini, diced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup sliced portobello mushrooms
  • 1.5 (28 ounce) jars pasta sauce
  • 4 ounces fresh baby spinach
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • - Boil a large pot of lightly salted water. Cook lasagna noodles until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil for flavor and to prevent sticking.
  • Combine 2 cups of mozzarella, ricotta, 1/2 cup of Parmesan, tofu, and eggs in a bowl. In a separate smaller bowl, mix the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
  • As the noodles cook, heat the rest of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté carrots, zucchini, onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms until tender, for about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in pasta sauce and spinach; simmer until the sauce is heated and the spinach is wilted, approximately 3 minutes.
  • Spread a thin layer of the vegetable sauce on the bottom of a 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Layer half of the lasagna noodles slightly overlapping. Top with half of the cheese-tofu mixture and half of the remaining sauce. Repeat with the rest of the noodles, cheese-tofu mixture, and sauce. Finish with a sprinkle of the mozzarella-Parmesan mixture on top.
  • Cover and bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then bake uncovered until bubbly, for about 20 minutes. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 8 large squares and serving.
