Vegan Spinach and Mushroom Lasagna

This vegan lasagna recipe is a little complicated but well worth it. This is my go-to dish when I have guests over and they can’t believe this is vegan. This recipe uses our Tofu Ricotta and Marinara Sauce recipes.

Notes

It is easiest to evenly distribute your tofu ricotta if you use a zip seal bag as a make-shift piping bag. I like the distribution best with a dime sized hole in the corner.
