Lasagna is one of the easiest ways to incorporate tofu into your diet. Crumbled firm tofu nicely takes on the role of cottage cheese, and blends in perfectly – for most, it is difficult to tell that there is tofu in the lasagna at all. This simple recipe makes a quick and fuss free dinner, just add a tossed salad and some crusty bread.
9 oven-ready lasagna noodles
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 medium onion diced
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 cup sliced mushrooms (I used portobello)
1 green or red pepper, chopped
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 (500ml) fat-free cottage cheese
1 pkg Sunrise Firm Tofu, crumbled and drained
1 (300g) pkg frozen chopped spinach - thawed, drained and squeezed dry
2 eggs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (700 ml) jar pasta sauce
¾ cup water
dried parsley
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2.In a large pot heat oil, sauté garlic, oil, pepper and mushrooms. Add the jar of sauce and water and stir.
3.In a medium bowl combine tofu, eggs, parmesan, cottage cheese and spinach and ½ of the mozzarella cheese.
4.Spread a layer of sauce (about 1/3 of it) on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
5.Lay 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce mixture
6.Spread ½ of the tofu spinach cheese mixture of the noodles, top with 1/3 of sauce and then 3 more lasagna noodles
7.Spread remaining tofu spinach cheese mixture and top with last 3 lasagna noodles ending with sauce. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
