Pasta-less Veg Lasagne


I tested this recipe out on my husband who is an avid meat eater (I actually get him to taste most of my recipes simply because he is so honest with his feedback) & he gave it a big thumbs up so for those of you concerned about how it tastes...fear not!

  • Tin of tomato/herb Mix (or make your own with 3 x chopped tomato and herbs)
  • 1 tsp Crushed Garlic
  • Spices: Origanum, Basil, Salt & Pepper
  • 1 Big Pkt Chopped Spinach
  • 1/2 Onion Chopped

Raw Cheese Sauce Layer:
  • 2 Cups Cashew Nuts
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar

Other:
  • 2 Pkt Baby Marrows

Raw Cheese Sauce Layer:

    Cashew nuts, Juice of 1/2 lemon, Apple Cider Vinegar, pinch of salt & 1/2-1 Cup water (start with 1/2 and keep adding until you get the desired sauce consistency)

Lasagne Layering:

  • Take a rectangle/square tin and line it with 1 layer of baby marrow
  • Now add a thin layer of basil pesto
  • Add a layer of spinach/tomato mixture
  • Add a layer of "cheese sauce"
  • Start with baby marrows again and add another layer of each ending off with "cheese sauce" layer on top
