For the cheese layer

  • 2 cups raw cashews, soaked in boiling water for about 15 minutes
  • 2 garlic cloves

  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • A handful of spinach leaves
  • A handful of basil leaves
  • Oregano to taste
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened tomato paste
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 teaspoon natural date syrup (silan)

For assembly

  • 1 package yellow lentil lasagna sheets

Instructions

  1. 1Make the cheese: Blend the soaked cashews, garlic, nutritional yeast, and water until you get a smooth "cheese".
  2. 2Make the sauce: Blend the tomatoes into a puree, transfer to a bowl, and add the garlic, spinach, basil, oregano, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and date syrup.
  3. 3Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
  4. 4In a baking dish, lay down a layer of lasagna sheets, top generously with tomato sauce and then the cheese, then repeat with lasagna sheets, sauce, and cheese. This amount makes about three layers.
  5. 5Lower the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for about half an hour.
