Here is how you make Vegan Kind Diet Sausage and Pepper Lasagna:

To Make: Press water out of tofu by wrapping in a clean towel, and placing a pot or pan on top for about 10-20 minutes. Crumble the tofu in a bowl, and add all other ingredients. Using a potato masher, smash up the tofu really well until it resembles ricotta cheese in texture. Set aside until ready to use.Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water with 2 Tbsp olive oil to a boil, and cook noodles according to package. The oil will prevent the noodles from sticking together. Cook them for a few minutes less than suggested , so that they can finish cooking in the oven. When noodles are done cooking, drain and rinse in cold water.While the noodles are cooking, heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a saute pan, and saute sausage a few minutes. Use a potato masher to help crumble the sausage into slightly smaller pieces. Add 2 jars of marinara sauce and 2 chopped green peppers to the pan, and let simmer about 10 minutes. To Assemble:Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a rectangular pyrex glass dish, start layering your lasagna. Start by adding a little sauce on the bottom, then 4 noodles, then sauce, spinach, tofu ricotta, 4 noodles, sauce, spinach, ricotta,4 noodles, and then end with sauce and cover the top with shredded vegan cheese (you should have 3 layers of noodles). Cover top of dish with foil, and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and cook an additional 10 minutes until cheese melts a little on top. Let cool 5 minutes, and as always, Enjoy!Serving Size: Makes 1 large lasagna pan, 12 servingsNumber of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user CABETT3257.
