Spinach and Tofu Lasagna

"I've been working on this one for a couple of years and I think that I finally have it right. Most of the recipes I had tried and failed before were because as DH said, "Where did all the flavor go?" This disappears fast in my house now. I'm posting this here because the paper that I have the recipe written on got dunked in the sauce last time."

directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain, set aside and keep warm.
  • Saute onion and garlic in the olive oil, adding a little water as needed to keep from sticking. Add one bag of spinach and saute until completely wilted.
  • In a very large bowl combine ricotta, tofu, parmesan cheese, garlic salt, oregano, egg, black pepper, parsley and sauted spinach mixture. Mix well.
  • Spray a 9x13 inch pan with cooking spray. Arrange a layer of cooked noodles on the bottom and top with 1/3 each of the ricotta mixture, the tomato or alfredo sauce, a handful of uncooked spinach and mozarella cheese. Repeat layers twice more, ending with the sauce and cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 40-45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10-15 more minutes to brown the cheese.

  1. Very good and the filling looks very pretty. I made a half quantity and the recipe worked well as a scaled down version. I rough cut the spinach with scissors as I found it made mixing easier. I didn't change the ingredients, but I think another time I'll add a bit of nutmeg.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I come from a very Polish family with 5 brothers and a sister. I love to cook just about anything Polish and I'm pretty good at cleaning out the refridgerator and making something worth eating. Just got married on 07/07/07, so I would love to get some Just for 2 dinner menus. Finally enjoying the wonderful California weather. I haven't started baking, but I'm really excited to get back into the contests here. <br> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/adopted_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/beartag_1_1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket> <br><img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/CLC2.gif> <br> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <br> <br>
