So, I made lasagna.

Fake cheese, from the lasagna recipe I linked to before, on vegweb:



The "cheese" is mostly crumbled tofu and tofutti's "Better Than Cream Cheese." There's also carrots, garlic, fresh parsley, lemon juice, and italian seasoning. I think it's mean to resemble ricotta and another cheese. I forget which one.

The sauce recipe was a modified version of what my mom always made when I was growing up. I took out the hamburger and added a can of tomatoes, other than that it's unchanged.

Pasta, "cheese," sauce, and spinach, as it was being layered:



I put some Tofutti "mozarella" slices on top before I baked it. It looked weird but melted well, and tasted pretty good.



On a plate, next to the garlic bread I made (yay for Earth Balance margarine!):



Dessert! Pepperidge Farm cherry and apple turnovers are vegan, I kid you not. They even specify that the monoglycerides are from soybeans! Soy Dream isn't as good as So Delicious, but it's okay on a turnover.



I'm so stuffed I feel ill. Oy vey.

I did a double-take, and then remembered you're on the other side of the world!

Lol. Well it's late for lunch even here (3pmish). Is it still Sunday there?

It's past nine pm, still Sunday.
