I can't thank u enough for this recipe!! I found it at the last minute for my dinner tonight (am the lone vegetarian in my family LOL!) and it was just what I wanted! I followed the recipe pretty closely; cut it down for one serving. I used diced mushrooms for the tofu, low fat cheese & added seasonings to the pasta sauce & brown rice for more flavor. I did use a bit more cheese hee hee! I didn't mix some sauce into the spinach mixture, but layered it on top instead. I baked it at 400 for about 15 min in my toaster oven. Fantastic & THANK YOU!!
