EASY GLUTEN FREE VEGETABLE AND TOFU LASAGNA

in #recipe7 years ago

I created this recipe for my summer yoga retreat and my students loved it. I took a vegetarian lasagna recipe and modified it to add more flavor. I decided to roast the vegetables prior to layering them in the lasagna pan and it worked. Try it and let me know what you think?
