Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
  • Add the onions, bell pepper and garlic and stir for 1-2 minutes or until softened.
  • Add the carrot and squash and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
  • Add the baby spinach, salt, pepper, and oregano and stir for another minute. Remove from heat.
  • Combine the tofu and parmesan in a food processer and process for at least a minute or until it has a smooth consistency.
  • Salt to taste. Set the mixture aside.
  • In a large pan over medium heat, combine the tomatoes, salt, sugar, black pepper, fresh basil, and oregano.
  • Bring it to a boil and then simmer on low for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Spray a 9x13 glass baking dish with a non stick spray.
  • Spread 1 cup of sauce on the bottom of the baking pan.
  • Roughly divide the tofu mixture and veggie mixture into 6 parts.
  • Spread 1 part tofu onto each of three uncooked noodles and place them on top of the sauce across the tray.
  • Spread 1 part veggie mixture onto each of the three noodles in the tray.
  • Cover with 1 cup of the sauce.
  • Repeat with a second layer of noodles with the remaining tofu and veggies and cover with another cup of sauce.
  • Top the second layer with three more noodle and cover with remaining sauce.
  • Sprinkle the top with 1 cup of shredded mozzarella.
  • Cover the entire tray with foil and bake for 50 minute.
  • Uncover the tray and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese bubbles.
  • Garnish with chopped basil. Let it stand for 10 minutes before cutting.

Notes

  • These are my staple vegetables but you can always substitute or use more or less of something
  • I use extra firm tofu because it’s what I am normally stocked with. Because I want it to be softer, I do not squeeze all the water from it.
