ENGINE 2 RAISE THE ROOF SWEET POTATO VEGETARIAN LASAGNA



Engine 2 Raise the Roof Sweet Potato Vegetarian Lasagna image

If you've heard about the Engine 2 Diet and want to try an Engine 2 approved recipe, here's a sample recipe to try. This is Rip Esselstyn's "Raise the Roof" sweet potato vegetarian lasagna. It's so good, he says, that he served it at his own wedding! It's also low in fat and cholesterol-free. Recipe courtesy of The Engine 2 Diet, by Rip Esselstyn. When I made this recipe, I only needed one box of lasagne noodles because the veggie mixture was so plentiful that I couldn't fit in another layer. The flavor is great, and I think you could use rotini noodles and bake it in a casserole dish for an easier preparation. (Leave the sweet potatoes in chunks if you do that.) Notice that the recipe doesn't call for any oil. If you use a non-stick wok, just add a little water to the bottom and it works just fine.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 slices, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 head broccoli, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
2 red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
1 (15 ounce) can corn, rinsed and drained
1 (12 ounce) package tofu
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon rosemary
2 (25 ounce) jars vegan pasta sauce
2 (14 ounce) boxes whole grain lasagna noodles
16 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and drained
2 sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
6 roma tomatoes, sliced thin
1 cup raw cashews, ground

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Sauté the onion and garlic on high heat for 3 minutes in a wok or nonstick pan. Add the mushrooms and cook until the onions are limp and the mushrooms give up their liquid. Remove them to a large bowl with a slotted spoon. Reserve the mushroom liquid in the pan. Sauté the broccoli and carrots for 5 minutes and add to the mushroom bowl. Sauté the peppers and corn until just beginning to soften. Add them to the vegetable bowl.
  • Drain the tofu by wrapping in paper towels. Break it up directly in the towel and mix into the vegetable bowl. Add spices to the vegetable bowl and combine.
  • To Assemble:.
  • Cover the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch casserole with a layer of sauce. Add a layer of noodles. Cover the noodles with sauce. This way the noodles cook in the oven, saving time and energy. Spread the vegetable mixture over the sauced noodles. Cover with a layer of noodles and another dressing of sauce. Add the spinach to the second layer of sauced noodles. Cover the spinach with the mashed sweet potatoes. Add another layer of sauce, the final layer of noodles, and a last topping of sauce. Cover the lasagna with thinly sliced roma tomatoes.
  • Cover with foil and bake in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle with the cashews, and return to the oven for 15 minutes. Let sit for 15 minutes before serving.

VEGETARIAN POTATO LASAGNA



Vegetarian Potato Lasagna image

Posted for Zaar World Tour 2005. I'm always looking for an easy low-fat lasagna recipe, and I think this would work well. It also sounds pretty healthy, and a great one-dish meal for sure. You can use either whole milk ricotta or low-fat. If you'd prefer you could also use a marinara sauce with meat. Developed by Helene Henderson from her cookbook The Swedish Table.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups water, salted
3 cups Baby Spinach, washed (5 1/4 ounce bag)
2 cups low-fat ricotta cheese (15 ounce container)
1 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 lemon, zest of
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated, divided
2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cut into rectangular blocks (2 large)
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups marinara sauce, homemade or 2 cups marinara sauce, purchased
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit.
  • In medium saucepan bring salted water to boil. Add spinach and cook 1 minute. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Squeeze out excess, chop, and stir into ricotta.
  • Add parsley, lemon zest and 1 tablespoon of parmesan into cheese mixture. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • With mandoline or sharp knife, cut potatoes lengthwise into 1/4 inch thick slices. In a large pot of salted water boil potato sheets until they begin to soften but before they become too soft to handle, about 5 minutes.
  • Rub butter on bottom of 8x10 inch glass baking dish. Add layer of potatoes, trimming slices to fit if necessary.
  • Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper, spread on a thin layer of marinara, then spread on half the ricotta cheese mixture.
  • Repeat layers, ending with potatoes and a thin, final layer of marinara, sprinkled with remaining parmesan.
  • Bake uncovered for 20 minutes, then cover with aluminum foil and bake until potatoes are cooked through, about 10-20 minutes more. Let rest for 10 minutes before carving into slices.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can thinly slice the potatoes using a sharp knife.
  • Be sure to pat the potatoes dry before layering them in the lasagna. This will help prevent the lasagna from becoming watery.
  • If you like a crispy crust, broil the lasagna for a few minutes at the end of the cooking time.
  • Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the lasagna hold its shape.

Conclusion:

This vegetarian potato lasagna is a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its layers of creamy sauce, tender potatoes, and melted cheese, this lasagna is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
