Boil the noodles according to the package instructions. I usually under cook them by a minute or two for this recipe.
Make the tofu ricotta. Steam the spinach, gently squeeze out the liquid, and add it to the food processor with the ricotta. Process until smooth.
Place a layer of sauce in a 9x13 pan. Add four lasagna noodles. Spread a third of the ricotta on top of the noodles. Sprinkle a bit of mozzarella on top of the ricotta. Spread a layer of sauce on top of the ricotta. Repeat these layers twice, then top with the final four lasagna noodles and a top layer of sauce.
Cover the pan tightly with foil, and bake for 45 minutes in a 375 oven. After 45 minute, add some grated mozzarella to the top of the lasagna, replace the foil, and bake for another 10 minutes.
After removing from the oven, allow the lasagna to sit for 10 to 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
Use any type of lasagna noodles you want - enriched, whole wheat, gluten free.
