How to Make VEGAN LASAGNA | Easiest Step by Step Method | Undetectable Vegan | Authentic

tofu

🥗Healthier: silken tofu

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Silken tofu maintains creaminess while reducing calories.

nutritional yeast

🥗Healthier: ground flaxseed

💰Cheaper: parmesan cheese

Ground flaxseed can add a nutty flavor and is often more affordable.

lasagna noodles

🥗Healthier: whole wheat lasagna noodles

💰Cheaper: regular lasagna noodles

Whole wheat noodles offer more fiber without a significant price increase.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Press the tofu to remove excess water using a tofu press or by wrapping it in a towel and placing a heavy object on top for about 20 minutes.

Soak 2 cups of walnuts overnight or for at least 4 hours, then drain the water.

In a food processor, combine drained walnuts, garlic (to taste), and a handful of sundried tomatoes; blend for about 20 seconds, scraping down the sides as needed.

Heat grapeseed oil in a skillet and add the walnut mixture; cook until heated through.

Remove the pressed tofu from the press and place it in a bowl; mash it with a potato masher until crumbled.

Mix in homemade hummus (or store-bought), lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and vegan parmesan cheese; season with salt and dry basil to taste.

Check on the walnut mixture in the skillet and add Korean barbecue sauce to season it; mix well and turn off the heat.

In a baking dish, spread a layer of tomato marinara sauce on the bottom.

Layer the oven-ready lasagna noodles over the sauce.

Add a layer of the tofu mixture on top of the noodles.

Spread a layer of the walnut mixture over the tofu layer.

Add a layer of vegan mozzarella cheese on top of the walnut mixture.

Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with noodles and a final layer of tomato sauce on top.

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
