Arrange a single layer of lasagna noodles, sprinkle one-third of the tofu mixture over the noodles. Distribute the spinach evenly over the tofu. Next ladle 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce over the tofu, and top it with another layer of the noodles.

Steps:

  • Grease an ice cube tray with nonstick spray. Spoon the pesto into the cups in the tray. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until the cubes are firm, at least 4 hours or up to 3 days.

  • Stir in the reserved eggplant, vegetable stock, and crushed tomatoes and stir to combine.
  • Remove the pesto cubes from the ice cube tray, and immediately distribute the frozen pesto cubes throughout the eggplant sauce.
  • Using your fingers or a pair of tongs, insert the noodle pieces vertically in the sauce around the pot. Cover the pot.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 18 minutes, then uncover the pot and use a spatula to push down the exposed noodles so they are covered in sauce. Cover and cook for 18 minutes more, until the noodles are tender.
  • Uncover and sprinkle the mozzarella over the top of the lasagna. Cover again and cook until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat.
  • Sprinkle the lasagna with parsley and serve with garlic bread alongside.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your lasagna a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include spinach, mushrooms, zucchini, and bell peppers.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender, but not mushy.
  • Use a creamy sauce. This will help to bind the lasagna together and make it more flavorful. A good choice is a béchamel sauce, made with milk, butter, and flour.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese. Cheese is what makes lasagna so delicious! Use a combination of mozzarella, ricotta, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake the lasagna until it is golden brown and bubbly. This will take about 30 minutes.
  • Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to cut.

Conclusion:

Vegan lasagna is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a satisfying meal, give vegan lasagna a try!
