In reply to Heather.

I took your advice and I made it without nutritional yeast. I replaced it with coconut aminos and miso paste. It turned out delicious! It's one of my husband's favorites. Thank you so much! You have made going vegan possible!!!

In reply to Heather. Hi Heather, nutritional yeast adds a bit of cheesiness. To sub it, you could try replacing it with ground almonds, ground cashews, or ground sunflower seeds, and something tangy like a bit of white miso paste. I hope that helps!

Recently discovered my husband can't do nutritional yeast. Do you have a recommendation for a substitute? I love all your recipes we've tried so far and want to give this one a try. Thank you.

In reply to Lizzie. Hi Lizzie, yes they can! Personally I am not a fan of the flavor and texture of the oven ready noodles, but if you like them, just follow the package directions to use them. Enjoy!

Can oven ready noodles be used? (The ones you don't pre- cook.)

This is one of the best vegan lasagna I've ever made and I'm Italian 😀
I change just one thing: I double the "mozzarella sauce" and add half of it into the tofu ragù to make it more creamy. Perfect.

It took me at least 45 minutes to clean up all the pots and pans I used…more like 2:30to get this in the pan and get the kitchen back to its original state….haven’t cooked it yet so there is no rating

Incredibly flavourful and meaty. I mean it.

This recipe is an easy 10/10! Sooo delicious, and honestly pretty easy to make. The tofu tasted incredible done this way! The ricotta was perfect. Only change I made was that I had Daiya mozza on hand so I used that on top instead of doing the homemade mozzarella sauce (which I'm sure is wonderful), and it turned out excellent regardless. Will definitely be making this repeatedly.

I’ve made many different vegan lasagna recipes, but this is the first one my husband has raved about to this extent. He said it was the first one that gave him the cheesiness you’d expect in a lasagna. We added mushrooms and a white onion to the sauce. 10/10 will make again!!

The recipe is fantastic! The vegan meat sauce really does have the texture of meat!

I added a package of chopped Bella mushrooms and two thinly sliced zucchini to the vegan sauce because I like veggies in my lasagna. Because of the added veggies, I added an additional 24 oz. jar of tomato sauce to the existing 32 oz. of tomato sauce.

For the noodles, I used Jovial brown rice noodles to make it gluten free. (I boiled the noodles four minutes as directed on the package. I needed four noodles per layer to cover the whole pan.) They turned out well!

I didn't have the white miso paste, so I used a tablespoon of soy sauce instead. I'll use more (maybe 2-3 tablespoons) next time to make it a little saltier tasting.

Will make again! 🙂

This recipe is amazing. I would give it 10 stars if possible. It held its shape when serving. The flavor is beyond what was expected, Easter dinner was a hit. My family loved it, even the non vegan members.

In reply to Birgitt. In this recipe, the mozzarella sauce is a timesaver. There is a lasagna recipe in Sam's Fuss Free Vegan book that you may wish to try as well!

I’m gingerly stepping into the world of vegan cooking and am looking forward to trying this lasagna recipe.
I’m wondering why you are using the mozzarella sauce instead of your ooey, gooey mozzarella

Made this for our New Year dinner, and it was outstanding. I was hoping for leftovers, but even the meat eaters devoured it and claimed it was delicious! Thanks for a great recipe.

In reply to Irene. Hi Irene, the sodium comes from the salt (in the mozzarella sauce), miso paste, and prepared tomato sauce mainly. To reduce the salt you could omit the salt, and use a salt free tomato sauce. Hope that helps!

By: Irene

Irene — Wed, 06 Sep 2023 05:41:57 +0000

hello, I was wondering if the sodium in the nutritional content was a typo, 1109mg per serving? I didn't even see saltbeing added, where did it ask come from? would love to try it but I'm trying to limit my sodium.

Delicious! This recipe is such a winner! We added this lasagna to our meal prep rotation and only adjust using over ready noodles to make prepping a bit easier. we add 1/2 cup of water to the dish and the noodles cook just fine. thanks for the recipe!

Sounds good, but for the meat part, I would use your easy vegan meatball recipe made with TVP! It is so tasty, and easy to make too.

Fantastic! I subbed the cheese sauce with Miyoko's vegan mozzarella sauce (because I needed to use it) and it turned out amazing. For those with gluten issues, I subbed the noodles for palm lasagna sheets and it was still tasty, although a bit of an chewier texture. That cashew ricotta is BOMB! You must make this!
