OPTIONAL:
- 3 tsp Italian herbs
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 4 tsp garlic powder
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 410°F and have a 10×10 casserole dish ready.
- Start with cutting eggplants in thin slices. Heat olive oil in a pan and fry the eggplants for around 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside. Make sure the oil hot, this way you will get a much better texture and flavor. After frying, make sure to remove any remaining oil. If needed, use kitchen crepe.
- Next mix marinara with garlic in a bow and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. If you use the optional garlic powder, onion powder and Italian herbs, mix them with the prepared vegan ricotta.
- Last be ready for layering your lasagna. Start with a layer of the marinara sauce on the bottom, followed by eggplants, vegan ricotta, marinara and a bit of vegan Parmesan, vegan mozzarella. Repeat until everything is used. The last layer should be a bit marinara and ricotta, garnish with Parmesan and Mozzarella.
- Bake for around 30 minutes until the vegan cheese is melted and a bit golden on top. Let cool down a bit for approximately 5 up 8 minutes and serve.
