Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.

To make the pasta sauce:

  1. In a medium pot over medium heat, cook diced onion in oil until lightly browned. Add 1 1/2 jars of tomato sauce (maybe lower the heat to reduce splattering) and heat through.
  2. Add beefless crumbles and cook until just heated through. Set aside.

To make the tofu ricotta:

  1. Mix to combine lemon juice, tahini, white miso, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder. Crumble in the tofu and mix well to combine.
  2. Defrost the frozen spinach and add to the tofu mixture. Stir well to combine.

To assemble:

  1. Cook pasta noodles according to the package and drain well.
  2. Spread some of the sauce reserved from that 1/2 of the jar on the bottom of a 9x13 glass casserole dish.
  3. Arrange and layer noodles, meaty sauce, ricotta and repeat. Top with noodles, meaty sauce (if there's any left, if not use the rest of that jar of pasta), and layer of vegan cheese. Be sure to cover all noodles in sauce or else it'll dry out while baking
  4. Cover with aluminium foil and bake for 30 minutes covered, then 15 minutes uncovered.
  5. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • *I used one that had herbs in it, but you can add 1/2 tsp each dried oregano, thyme, and parsley to add extra flavour.
  • Also, if you'd prefer not to use the beefless crumbles, you can leave them out completely, but if you want a nice, bulky lasagna I'd recommend adding cooked lentils, TVP, or beans.
