Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until tender but still hold their shape. Drain thoroughly and lay them out flat to avoid sticking.
- In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly translucent.
- Introduce the chopped mushrooms into the pan and sauté for another 3-4 minutes until softened, then add fresh spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Remove the pan from heat and combine the sautéed mixture with vegan ricotta in a mixing bowl, stirring until creamy.
- Take a cooked lasagna noodle, scoop a generous amount of the ricotta-veggie mixture onto it, and roll tightly. Place each rolled noodle seam side down in a baking dish.
- Pour marinara sauce into the baking dish and lay each lasagna roll seam side down into the sauce. Sprinkle shredded vegan mozzarella on top.
- Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, until the cheese melts and bubbles. Let cool briefly before serving.
Notes
