P&B's Vegan Lasagna

Howdy readers, this is Paul; Brit's assistance for her vegan meals. I'm not vegan myself, but I do enjoy some vegan meals. This recipe was made by my mother, altered by me, then adapted for Brit's tastes and vegan lifestyle. Here's how ours went:

Ingredients
2 blocks of vegan mozzarella cheese
1 box of lasagna noodles (we used rice this time, my first attempt with rice noodles)
2 cups tofu "ricotta" (We used the recipe from Skinny Bitch in the Kitch)
2 big cans of pasta sauce of your choice. (I make my own, which might be in a future post here, so check back for it folks. Most people who try it say it's their favorite. [/pimping])

Process:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Take your pan (we used a rectangular glass pan) and coat the bottom with sauce. Then put a layer of noodles down, cover that in more sauce, then add a layer of mozzarella cheese. Repeat this process (while mixing in 2 layers of the ricotta in place of the mozzarella) till you reach your desired height. (I like mine deep dish.) The top layer should be mozzarella, enough to cover the top fully. Now cover in foil, and cook for 1 hour. At the 45 minute mark I like to uncover the foil on the dish to let the cheese brown. If it needs more melting and browning just kick it up to broil for 5-10 minutes and that'll get the job done. And that should be all folks. Now go enjoy some tasty lasagna, vegan style!
