ok, i’m not a bragger but this could be an award winning lasagna. it’s that good and i can’t believe how decadent and creamy the tofu cheese is!! the cheese is kind of like an even creamier version of ricotta. it’s not that green besides the zucchini and red chard but ya know, that’s good enough for me.
packed with veggies, greens, gluten-free lasagna noodles, tofu cheese, shredded cheese and good marinara, this is an all-around crowd pleaser. the recipe yields enough for about 6-7 slices.


the lasagna cooks for 40 minutes, so the zucchini becomes super tender. also, the lasagna noodles are gluten-free and you don’t have to boil them. i actually make lasagna pretty often and go to whole foods just for their 365 brand yellow lentil and brown rice noodles. huge fan of the taste and texture!
you could definitely swap the red chard for kale or spinach. just about any greens will work. i sautรฉed the red chard first and then spread it on top as a layer.


you can make this early on in the week and have lunch/dinner set for the next few days! sounds like a dream, right?!

ok my friends, enjoy the rest of your evening and i hope you love this awesome recipe!
