Spinach Lasagne:

Whole wheat lasagne noodles (package)

preheat oven to 350, boil noodles and drain, put noodles on wax paper or foil while sauteing spinach with earth balance, sea salt and thyme. Take tofu, salt, nutmeg, soup mix, fresh herbs, soy milk and corn stach in a food processor and blend well, taste to see if more salt is needed. Take casserole dish (I used a 9" x 13" rectangle) spread some sauce on the bottom of pan, add layer off noodles, tofu mixture, spinach and another noodle, add sauce and repeat layer of noodles, tofu, spinach, noodle and continue until at top of casserole dish, then add sauce and nutritional yeast (optional) bake for about 40 minutes, cool for atleast 10 minutes before cutting
