For the sauce and noodles:

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon prepared mustard , or use ground mustard

  • To the remaining mushrooms, add in the broth, nutritional yeast, thyme, parsley, mustard, and mix well.
  • Then add the broken lasagna noodles and press into the broth. Cover and cook for 15-18 minutes.
  • Stir once in between to check if the noodles are cooking on time and not sticking at the bottom and then continue to cook until the noodles are cooked to preference.
  • Meanwhile, blend the tofu with the non-dairy milk and flour and salt until creamy.
  • Then add in to the pan, mix well and continue to cook to thicken the sauce. 3-4 minutes. (You can add in 1/4 cup vegan mozzarella shred for cheesier and mix in. )
  • Then sprinkle vegan parmesan on top. Cover with the lid and cook for another minute then switch off the heat.
  • That will melt your parmesan on top then top it with the reserved mushroom and some pepper flakes or fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

For gluten-free, use gluten-free pasta and cornstarch instead of flour for thickening.
  • Tofu substitutes :  use my nut-free Cauliflower Alfredo or Pumpkin seed Alfredo instead of this tofu bechamel sauce. You might need a double serving.
    Use my cashew alfredo like my skillet alfredo lasagna, if you’re ok with nuts, so blend 3/4 cup cashews with the 2 cups broth.. Also blend in the 1/2 cup non dairy milk, sal and flour at the same time and add to the skillet with the noodles.

Ingredients:

  • For the balsamic mushrooms, we sautee sliced baby bella ins some vegan butter along with garlic, and white onion and deglaze the pan with some white wine or balsamic vinegar
  • lasagna noodles are cooked in the same pan we fried the mushrooms in along with broth, nutritional yeast, thyme, parsley, and mustard
  • For the vegan bechamel, we blend with plant-based milk with tofu and a small amount of flour for thickening
  • for that cheesy crust, we add a generous sprinkle of vegan parmesan on top which melts with the remaining heat

Tips:

  • Feel free to use my nut-free Cauliflower Alfredo or Pumpkin seed Alfredo instead of this tofu bechamel sauce. You might need a double serving. Use my cashew alfredo if you’re ok with nuts
  • any kind of plant-based milk is fine, use unsweetened plain, including almond, oat, cashew, and soy milk
  • For gluten-free, use gluten-free pasta and cornstarch instead of flour for thickening.

    2. Cathryn says:

      Made this for a girls lunch club .. winner 👍

      1. Vegan Richa Support says:

        girls 🎊 party yay!!

  6. Nicola says:

    Is it the same amount of time if I use regular lasagna noodles (as I don’t have the no-boil)? Would love to make this.

    1. Richa says:

      Regular will take 18-20 mins. I mention a range 15-18 as times depend on the pan,stove, noodles. Check at 16/17 mins, check if done, stir well and continue to cook.

      1. Robin says:

        Sounds delish! I’m at the beginning of a plant-based lifestyle so I know very little and your instructions are so insightful and educational- thanks. This recipe calls for “broth” … is that vegetable stock or other?

        1. Vegan Richa Support says:

          welcome to the club! yes, veggie stock

  7. Genie says:

    Don’t have lasagna noodles on hand, can I just substitute gluten free pasta, like penne? How much would I use? I’m thinking 6 to 8 ounces?

    1. Richa says:

      I usually use 5 oz. yes any pasta will work. Use a flatter type as penne takes much longer to cook as well needs more liquid to cook evenly. So farfalle or similar

  8. A.W. says:

    This sounds fab, and I want to try it but need nutritional info, please. How much is “a serving”? Thank you in advance!

    1. Vegan Richa Support says:

      depends on who’s eating etc. but about 2 cups/ serving

  9. Jenny says:

    This flavor is perfectly spicy along with the texture of the noodles and mushrooms and the creamy sauce it was the perfect cozy meal. Thank you – it’s already another favorite!

    1. Richa says:

      Awesome !

  10. Casper says:

    This looks great! Do you press the tofu before blending? Thanks.

    1. Richa says:

      Nope. It’s making a sauce so no need to press
