This is one of my favorite dinners. I never have the right ingredients to make the traditional cheese filling, and tofu is a great substitute.
Tofu Lasagna
1 block extra firm tofu packed in water (NOT the silken kind)
About 1 Tbsp rice vinegar
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp basil
2 Tbsp oregano
Mozzarella Cheese
About two jars of marinara sauce (or make your own--I don't always have time!)
Lasagna
Prepare the pasta as directed on the box.
In a bowl, crumble the tofu and mix with the vinegar (for a cheesy taste), parmesan, basil, oregano, and approximately 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Set aside.
When the pasta is done, pour some sauce on the bottom of a 9 X 13 pan. Place a layer of pasta, about 1/2 of the cheese mixture and more sauce. Repeat , ending with a layer of noodles on top. Pour your remainding pasta sauce on top, cover with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with some parmesan cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees for about an hour to an hour and a half, depending on your oven. It is done when the cheese is golden.

I've done a variation on this recipe. Yours sounds a lot better though. I'm going to try it.
Brown noser! That's Josh's problem, you know, everybody always telling him how great he is.
