Prepare noodles as directed.* Drain water from tofu. With
a potato masher (or by hand) mash tofu in a bowl. Add spices
to tofu and remash to distribute spices evenly. You may
lightly saute tofu and spices in olive oil if desired, but
this is not necessary. You can also blend the seasoned tofu
to make it more creamy and smooth. Cover bottom
of 9 x 11 pan with spaghetti sauce. Layer noodles over sauce.
Sprinkle some tofu over noodles, cover with spaghetti sauce,
sprinkle cheese over sauce. continue to layer this way (noodles,
tofu, sauce, cheese) until all noodles are used. Cover casserole
to bake. (Note: if you are lactose intolerant or vegan,
simply eliminate cheese.)
Cook for: 40-45 minutes or according to No Cook noodle instructions.
Cook at: 350º
Serves: 6-8
*No Cook noodles can be used, but would recommend spraying the pan with oil, and also be sure to use plenty of sauce, and maybe a couple of tablespoons of water in the bottom of the pan, with the sauce.
