Regular lasagna made can be made even tastier, in my opinion, by layering in some roasted veggies. Practically any vegetable tastes better roasted, so I just pick whatever looks good at the supermarket. In this case I used two zucchini, three small carrots, an eggplant, and a red onion, I made the tofu ricotta from Veganomicon and used some marinara that Tony made.
A veggie layer...
The finished product, topped with some vegan cheese shreds and quick homemade vegan parmesan...
So, that's week 2 of Vegan MoFo! For me, anyway -- those of you who are blogging on weekends have my respect, but I can't seem to do it. This weekend we're going to New Jersey to visit friends and Tony is taking me on an actual date (our first in over a year, whoa!) Do you have any fun plans this weekend? Have a good one! I'll leave you with a survey I swiped from I Eat Trees and have been saving for a lazy day...like today.
cream cheese...thanks, Tofutti!

Lasagna looks great! I lucked out. The boy only hates a few things so I never have to sneak stuff in. Although, it kills a part of me that I can't bake with raisins unless I want to eat the entire batch of something.
ReplyDeleteThat lasagna looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI think Annie's Goddess dressing is the best, too! Some salad with that dressing and that lasagna you made would be fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThat lasagna looks so good. I haven't had lasagna in so long, I really want to make some right now.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing Vegan MoFo on my blog too, and I'm trying to visit as many fellow MoFoer's as possible. I'm so glad I discovered your blog, it's wonderful!
haha yes, dessert shared with others is best! i mean dessert for one is ok, but no one should be trusted alone with cake :P <3
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have a bite of your lasagna! I make it much too seldom myself, but love it every time I get it somewhere. :)
