  • You can also use coconut aminos or tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • If you don’t like mushrooms, simply leave them out. You could also add zucchini or your favorite vegetables instead.
  • Use marinara sauce or your favorite tomato sauce. You can also make a homemade tomato sauce. Simply mix passata with salt, pepper, oregano, and a little sweetener to taste.
  • I made homemade hummus, however, you can buy store-bought hummus or vegan ricotta cheese.
  • I used homemade vegan cheese sauce, butyou can use your favorite store-bought vegan cheese. Grated cheese is fine!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 tbsp oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 small can mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 tbsp soy sauce (gluten-free if needed)
  • 3.5 oz (100 g) fresh spinach
  • 1 1/2 cups (360 g) marinara sauce (see notes)
  • 6-8 lasagna noodles (regular or gluten-free)

  • 1/2 tsp cumin (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (optional)
  • A few tbsp lemon juice (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 7 oz (200 g) vegan cheese

Instructions

  • You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.

    Cook the lasagna noodles in a large pot (filled with boiling water and salt) according to package directions, or until al dente.

  • Ladle about 1/2 cup marinara sauce (or your favorite tomato sauce) in the bottom of a 9×6 (23x15 cm) baking dish (you can use a larger pan). Set aside.

  • While the lasagna noodles cook, heat oil in a pan over medium heat and add the diced onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Saute for about 4 minutes. Then add soy sauce and spinach. Cook for a further 30-60 seconds, then turn off the heat.

  • Add the hummus and stir with a spoon.

  • Depending on the brand of your store-bought hummus, you might need to add more flavor. I added cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to taste.

  • Carefully drain the lasagna noodles and preheat your oven to 360 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

  • Lay cooked noodles on a clean surface and place about 1/4 cup of the hummus-mixture on each noodle and spread it evenly. Roll up each lasagna noodle and place it seam-side down in the baking dish.

  • Ladle the remaining 1 cup marinara sauce over the lasagna noodles.

  • Add vegan cheese on top (I used my homemade vegan cheese sauce).

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, garnish with Vegan Parmesan Cheese, and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use your favorite tomato sauce instead of marinara sauce.
  • If you aren't a fan of mushrooms, simply leave them out and use your favorite vegetable (e.g. zucchini) instead.
  • You can use Vegan Ricotta Cheese instead of hummus.
  • You might also love my Vegan Lasagna Soup recipe.
  • Recipe makes 6-8 rolls. Nutrition facts are for one serving.

    Could you sub the mushroom with TVP? Or what would you suggest to sub the mushrooms with?

      That should be fine, or you could use your favorite vegetables instead of mushrooms.

What makes lasagna soggy? ›

Mistake number 3: the sauce is too runny

The key is to have a nice, thick sauce that won't seep too much into the pasta, but rather, get absorbed into it, making it more flavorful. So, to achieve the perfect lasagna, the consistency of the sauce is absolutely essential.

Why is my vegetarian lasagna watery? ›

Boiled noodles are wet, and can actually give off some of their moisture while baking. Whereas dried or fresh noodles absorb moisture from the other ingredients, ensuring that you don't get a "soupy" lasagna even if some of your veggies or your sauces are too wet.

Why is my veggie bake watery? ›

Prep Vegetables Ahead Of Time

What we mean is that vegetables are one of the biggest culprits when it comes to watery casseroles. That's because vegetables naturally contain a lot of water in their raw form. When cooked, water leaches out, transforming your rich, gooey casserole into a liquidy slop.

How to thicken up soupy lasagna? ›

A soupy consistency in your lasagna can make it bland and impossible to slice and serve. If your recipe keeps turning out watery, try thickening your sauce with cornstarch. Cornstarch won't affect the sauce's flavor, and is a much more effective thickener than flour.

What makes lasagna taste better? ›

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients such as fresh pasta, high-quality meat, fresh vegetables, and high-quality cheese. Cook the sauce slowly: Lasagna sauce should be cooked slowly over low heat for a long period of time. This allows the flavors to develop and creates a rich, flavorful sauce.

Can I use sour cream instead of ricotta? ›

Sour cream: The textures are obviously quite different. But, in a pinch, sour cream can pass as a ricotta alternative in a dish where cheese isn't the star of the show. If you're looking for a sub for lasagna, though, reach for cottage or goat cheese instead.

What can I add to lasagna to make it better? ›

Dried herbs + spices: Crushed red pepper flakes, dried oregano, bay leaf, sea salt and lots of freshly-cracked black pepper. Fresh basil: When it comes to fresh basil, I vote the more the merrier with this lasagna recipe. We will chop and stir a good amount of basil into the cheese mixture.

There are four tried and true methods to prevent dry lasagne.
  1. Par cook the noodles. Don't cook them all of the way, just until they are pliable. ...
  2. Use enough sauce. ...
  3. Cover your lasagne with a layer of plastic wrap and then a layer of aluminum foil before you bake it. ...
  4. Bechamel sauce.

How do you get excess water out of lasagna? ›

**Let it rest**: Allow the lasagna to rest for 10 to 15 minutes after removing it from the oven before slicing and serving. During this time, the lasagna will continue to set, and excess moisture may be absorbed.

Why do you put milk in lasagna? ›

Milk. It tenderises the meat, to leave you with the most tender ragù.

How long should lasagna rest before cutting? ›

Before cutting lasagna, it's recommended to let it sit for 20 to 40 minutes, so it cools a bit and becomes firm enough to hold its shape without losing any filling.
