Start with 2 cups of cashews ( I soaked my cashews for about an hour before cooking, you could also soak in hot water for 5-10 minutes )
Add your cashews
freshed squeezed lemon juice ( I used 4 )
tbsp of minced garlic
1/2 cup of water
- Blend this all together
then onion powder, salt & pepper to taste
This "cheese" turned out so creamy and good I liked the spoon!
NEXT: I added about 2 cups of spinach to the cheese.
on to the veggies!
Then I cooked the onion, garlic,bell pepper and basil in oil.
Let that cook for about 6 minutes then add in your chopped squash, zucchini, mushrooms, and tomatos.
I love spinach so much I added a few cups of spinach to the mix too!
Then add a layer of sauce to your pan
Next add your noodles, I used oven ready, any lasagne noodles will do.
Then add a layer of your spinach & ricotta cheese
Next a layer of your veggie mix
I made 3 layers
sauce
noodles
cheese
veggies
and repeat!
On your last layer just add the cheese sauce and shreded cheese to top it off!
I used GoVeggie mozzarella shreds
Let bake in the oven on 375 for 40 minutes.
I paired with corn, salad and garlic bread! Such a yummy and fulfilling meal. I hope you enojoy! #PaigeWhatsForDinner
