If I want to make this with jarred/pre-made sauce, how much would the recipe call for?

Hi Sam, do you have your Kale and Cashew Ricotta Pasta Bake recipe anywhere? I make it all the time, but my pin for it now takes me to this recipe.

In reply to Sam Turnbull. So glad to find this comment! So that would mean just chop up 4½ cup of fresh tomatoes yes? But canned products are always salted and sometimes seasoned. Is it necessary to adjust the seasoning? Xx

How do you do it? Over and over again, I find myself leaving you five star reviews, and even more important I’m motivated to try new recipes of yours because I know it’s going to be smooth making it and it’s going to taste delish!

This ziti is so yummy! Comfort food veganized and easy to make. The tofu ricotta is simple and makes this dish so creamy. I added fresh spinach to the mix. This will be great to take for potlucks and family dinners.

Thank you Sam!

Alchemy! I am wowed. Will definitely be making this more often. Who knew tofu could taste like this??

I wish I could give this 6 stars. Amazing! I didn't make the Parmegan; instead I put just nutritional yeast and some breadcrumbs on top. Inspired by another commenter, I added crumbled up field roast Italian sausage (vegan) in my sauce. This is definitely one to wow non-vegans! Who knew tofu could taste like that??

In reply to Nikki Rangel. Absolutely! Any diced and crushed canned tomatoes will work just fine. You could even use fresh tomatoes and dice and crush them yourself. Enjoy!

This was such a perfect ziti!! My husband literally licked his plate clean 😀 I added some gardein beefless crumbles and chopped mushrooms to the tomato sauce per his request, but followed the recipe exact otherwise. Thank you for such a simple and comforting recipe!

Holy carp, this was awesome!!!! A great meal for everyone including the 4 year old girl (who is a pasta monster) and the 9 month old boy (who just loves eating anything he can, despite only having 3 teeth). This would be a great meal to "wow" the unconverted! Thanks for all your great recipes and inspiration, Sam.

Delicious! Easy to make, I modified it slightly, by adding a cup of grated zucchini to the sauce, I also sauted a few handfuls of spinach while making the tofu ricotta mixture andthenblended it all together. Also in all my years of grocery shopping I never noticed Glen Muir tomatoes, as I was shopping I spotted them on the bottom shelf of the natural food section so I used them, the fire roasted adds a lovely flavour. Yumm

Like you said, I feel like this is the perfect dish for a dinner party! It definitely looks like the perfect impressive but super comforting meal, especially great now that it's getting a bit chilly! Love the idea of tofu ricotta. Looks wonderful, Sam 🙂

In reply to Carol. Uh oh, are we fighting over our love!? Hahaha. Yes, I grew up on Italian food as well! Love it! I have a scrumptious recipe for vegan beanballs in my cookbook which you must try when it comes out! :) I hope you love the recipe, Carol :)

I don't know, you see Vegan Baked Ziti is MY one true love! It is my most favorite casserole to make, and now I get to try YOUR recipe - YAY! And actually, Italian main dish foods have been my favorite since childhood - my mom made the best spaghetti and meatballs, and now I make my own meteballs buy get vegan from the store freezer. As always - you continue to rock!

In reply to Ann. Haha! Aww shucks, thanks so much, Ann! Tofu changes texture pretty dramatically when frozen, so the ricotta might go funny. You could try using my Cashew Ricotta instead which might freeze better. The book comes so soon now, I'm excited too!!
