THE ULTIMATE MEATY VEGAN LASAGNA
This hearty vegan lasagna is cheesy, meaty, and full of flavor. The recipe takes awhile to prepare, but it is well worth it! Leftovers keep well for several days in the fridge (and, in my opinion, taste even better as the flavors develop).

Steps:
- Heat olive oil over medium heat in a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed pot. Sauté garlic for a few minutes, until fragrant.
- Add crushed tomatoes, chopped basil, pepper flakes, onion powder, and oregano. Stir to combine. Bring to a very gentle boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1-2 hours. (This can also be prepared in a slow cooker or Instant Pot.)
- Combine ingredients in a food processor and puree until mostly smooth. (A tiny amount of graininess is actually preferable and will make the ricotta texture much more convincing! Scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go to ensure even texture.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, sautée mushrooms in a drizzle of olive oil for 5-8 minutes, stirring often, to cook off excess moisture. Add zucchini and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, cook vegan beef-style crumbles and Beyond Sausage for a few minutes until lightly browned. (If you're just using the beef crumbles, you can skip this step, but the Beyond Sausage is easiest to work with when lightly cooked.)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Spread about 1 cup of marinara sauce in the bottom of a greased 9×13″ baking dish. Layer 3 lasagna noodles, and roughly 1/3 of the sausage, vegetables, ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and sauce. Repeat layers, reserving about 1 cup of mozzarella and 1 cup of sauce for the very top.
- Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10-15 additional minutes, uncovered, until edges are slightly browned. Remove from oven and allow to rest for about 15 minutes before serving. (This will allow it to firm up a bit and make it easier to cut and serve.)

Steps:
- Add the olive oil to a large pan over medium heat. When hot, add the onion, bell pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and translucent and the pepper is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for one more minute.
- Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, honey or sugar, salt, and pepper. If you're using whole tomatoes, break up the tomatoes with a spoon. To save time, I will sometimes give whole tomatoes a quick spin in the blender to break them down a bit, then add them to the pot. (This is also a good method if you're serving people who don't like tomato chunks in their sauce).
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat, until the sauce comes to a boil. Turn the heat to low, partially cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Add the parsley, then remove from the heat.
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Grab a 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan. Smear a little of the sauce on the bottom of the pan. Add a single layer of pasta, breaking to fit as needed. Using a couple of spoons (one to scoop and one to scrape it off), plop half the ricotta all over the noodles in little mounds. Top with 1/3 of the remaining sauce. Sprinkle on half of the mozzarella.
- Repeat with a layer of pasta, then the rest of the ricotta, then another third of the sauce, then the remaining mozzarella.
- Add a last layer of pasta and spread the remaining sauce over the top. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
- Bake until bubbly and melty and the pasta is tender, about 45 minutes. If the top begins to get brown, cover with foil during the last 10 minutes or so of baking.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
- Keeps refrigerated covered or in an airtight container for about 3 days. It also keeps frozen for several months. I have also frozen single-portion leftovers in individual freezer bags for quick and easy lunches.

SARAH'S AMAZING VEGETARIAN LASAGNA
I don't remember where I got the recipe, but I make it as often as possible. Even though my DH is a "nothing-but-meat-and-potatoes" kinda guy, this dish is his favorite, and I'm lucky if I get a piece before he eats it all!
