A lighter take on the favorite, tofu lasagna packs in healthy ingredients like spinach and mushrooms without sacrificing flavor. By blending the tofu with ricotta, it also maintains the look and feel of the classic Italian baked pasta<\/a> dish. Tofu<\/a> might be surprising in lasagna, but with a mild flavor and a similar texture to ricotta when blended, it becomes almost a secret ingredient in the filling. Everything else will be familiar to lasagna fans: tangy marinara sauce, Parmesan, mozzarella, garlic and onion. This vegetarian recipe<\/a> is perfect for family dinners; when portioned out, it’s excellent for make-ahead lunches during the week.<\/p>\n Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. In a large nonstick skillet, saute the onion and garlic in olive oil for one minute. Add the mushrooms and cook them, stirring, until they’re tender. Set them aside.<\/p>\n Drain the tofu, reserving two tablespoons of its liquid. Place the tofu and reserved liquid in a food processor, cover it and process until the tofu is blended. Add the ricotta cheese, cover, and process for one to two minutes longer or until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the parsley, 1\/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper and the mushroom mixture. In a separate bowl, combine the spinach and remaining salt.<\/p>\n Drain the noodles. Spread half of the marinara sauce into a 13×9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Layer with three noodles, half the tofu mixture and half the spinach mixture. Repeat with layers of noodles, tofu and spinach. Top with the remaining noodles and marinara sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan and mozzarella.<\/p>\n Bake the lasagna, uncovered, until it’s heated through and the cheese is melted, 30 to 35 minutes. Let it stand for 10 minutes before cutting.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Allowing lasagna to rest ensures a clean slice when ready to serve. Otherwise, you may be serving lasagna soup.<\/p>\n Cut the tofu lasagna into serving-size pieces, and use a flat spatula to move each piece to a glass storage container with a tight-fitting lid. Store it in the fridge for up to four days.<\/p>\n There are two ways to freeze lasagna<\/a>. To freeze unbaked lasagna, layer the ingredients in a disposable pan, cover it tightly, and freeze it before baking. You can bake it from frozen; just add extra baking time. To freeze an already baked lasagna, allow it to cool, cover it tightly, and freeze it for up to three months. To reheat an entire pan, bake it in a 350\u00b0 oven until it’s warmed through. You can also cut the lasagna into individual servings and freeze it in airtight containers.<\/p>\n Reheat lasagna in the microwave or in a 350\u00b0 oven until it’s hot.<\/p>\n Yes, fresh spinach will be even more flavorful than frozen spinach. After cooking the mushrooms, transfer them to the large bowl you’ll later use to make the filling, then briefly wilt the spinach in the still-hot pan.<\/p>\n This dish sways healthy, so keep that vibe rolling by serving the lasagna with an Italian fresh vegetable salad<\/a> and some grilled zucchini<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Tofu lasagna has classic marinara and
