Zesty tomato sauce mixed with garlic, onion, herbs, paired with savory tofu and spinach.
Ingredients:
  • 1.5 cups chopped onion
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 4 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
  • 0.33333334326744 cup tomato paste
  • 0.5 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 0.5 cup chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
  • 2 pounds firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 0.25 cup chopped parsley
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
Instructions:
  • Prepare the sauce: Heat olive oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Saute onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Combine the tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, and parsley in a saucepan. Stir to combine, then simmer covered on low heat for 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper once done.
  • While the sauce is simmering, heat a large pot of salted water until boiling. Cook the lasagna noodles for 9 minutes, then drain and rinse thoroughly.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) for the perfect baking temperature.
  • Combine tofu blocks with aromatic garlic, basil, and parsley in a spacious bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then gently combine by pressing and melding ingredients between your fingers until well blended.
  • Construct the lasagna: Start by blanketing 1 cup of tomato sauce on the base of a 9x13 inch casserole dish. Layer lasagna noodles, then sprinkle one-third of the tofu mixture and evenly spread the spinach over it. Pour 1 1/2 cups of tomato sauce, followed by another layer of noodles. Repeat with one-third of the tofu mixture, 1 1/2 cups of tomato sauce, and noodles. Finish with the remaining tofu, then cover everything with the remaining tomato sauce.
  • Seal the pan with foil and bake the lasagna for 30 minutes until bubbly. Serve piping hot and savor every bite.
