Warm, comforting lasagna is hard to resist. This easy Vegan Spinach Lasagna recipe is the ultimate comfort food for the holidays or special occasions.
This vegan lasagna was inspired by my Vegan Zucchini Lasagna Rolls. This is the naughtier recipe of the two if you count pasta as being naughty.
I also have a One-Pot Vegan Lentil Lasagna recipe.
Serve it with some Vegan Eggnog or Oat Milk Hot Chocolate.
Other vegan recipes with spinach to try are my Vegan Spinach Dip recipe, Vegan Spinach Calzones, and Vegan Broccoli and Spinach Quiche.

โค๏ธ Why You'll Love It
- It is warm and comforting. It's one of my favorite recipes!
- Made with no-boil noodles, it is an easy weeknight meal.
- The creamy ricotta is so good, you'd never know it is dairy-free.
๐งพ Ingredients
- Onion: I used a yellow onion. A white onion would also work.
- Olive oil: For cooking the veggies.
- Garlic: Adds a pungent flavor.
- Spinach: I used fresh spinach.
- Tofu ricotta: Adds a creamy texture, cheesy flavor, and some extra protein. I used my homemade tofu ricotta recipe. You could also use homemade cashew ricotta or store-bought vegan ricotta.
- Salt and black pepper: Enhances flavors and adds flavor. I like to use sea salt.
- Marinara sauce: I used pre-made marinara sauce. If you prefer homemade marinara sauce, go for it. You could also use pizza sauce, pasta sauce, or canned tomatoes.
- Nutritional yeast: Adds a cheesy flavor. You could also use store-bought parmesan or vegan cheese shreds, or leave it off.
- Lasagna noodles: I used no-boil gluten-free lasagna noodles because it makes things easier. I buy them at my local grocery store. You could also order them online. You could use your favorite oven-ready lasagna noodles or regular noodles if desired.
