Spinach Casserole

"Easily veganized (simply substitute soy mozzarella for regular) this delicious casserole is a mainstay in my house. Tastes rather like a lasagna-type dish, and can hold many substitutions (mushrooms are fabulous in here too!)"

  1. 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!!
     
  2. I made this the other night and even the family members who do not like spinach liked it and asked me to add it to our regular menu! Now that is a compliment! :) I used red onion and mushroom spaghetti sauce. Thank you!
     
  3. An excellent and easy to make recipe. I used regular brown rice, added about 1-1 1/2 cups more water to the pasta sauce and cooked for an hour. Thanks for posting this.
