Ingredients

1pound ground beef,
1pound ground turkey,
1can crushed tomatoes, (22 oz)
1cup tomato sauce,
8oz mushrooms, pan fried in olive oil
spices, basil, oregano, garlic powder, parsley
1box lasagna noodles,
1package soft tofu,
1 egg,
14oz veggie mozzarella cheese,
1/2cup leeks, minced
1/4cup veggie parmesean,

Equipment

  • Large Pot for lasagna noodles
  • Large Skillet for meat
  • Casserolle dish

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In large skillet, brown the beef and turkey. Add spices and leeks. Once browned, drain of most of the fat. Separately, fry the mushrooms in a little olive oil, and add to the meat without the juice. Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt and pepper to taste. Put aside.
  2. Crush the soft tofu with a fork and mix with an egg until it looks like ricotta. Put aside.
  3. Boil full box of lasagna noodles until floppy in the large pot. Drain and cool.
  4. Starting with the meat sauce, alternately layer meat, noodles, tofu, and mozzarella cheese, each filling the whole pan with a medium thickness layer. Repeat this again, and then add one more layer of meat, topped with parmesean cheese.
  5. Cook in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until browned and bubbly. Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve, you'll never miss the cheese!
