Lasagna is one of the easiest ways to incorporate tofu into your diet. Crumbled firm tofu nicely takes on the role of cottage cheese, and blends in perfectly – for most, it is difficult to tell that there is tofu in the lasagna at all. This simple recipe makes a quick and fuss free dinner, just add a tossed salad and some crusty bread.
