Hi Tracey,
I've not tried this but it's a Cooking Light Five-Star recipe, so I'd say it's certainly worth a try. By the way, I tried tofu once...:-(
FOUR-CHEESE VEGETABLE LASAGNA (9 Servings)
1 10-ounce pkg frozen chopped spinach, thawed Vegetable cooking spray 2 tsp vegetable oil 2 cups chopped fresh broccoli 1-1/2 cups thinly sliced carrot 1 cup sliced green onions 1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper 3 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 3 cups 1% low-fat milk 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper 1-1/2 cups 1% low-fat cottage cheese 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese 12 cooked lasagna noodles (cooked without salt or fat)
Drain spinach; press between paper towels to remove moisture; set aside.
Coat a Dutch oven with cooking spray. Add oil; place over medium heat until hot. Add broccoli and next 4 ingredients; saute 7 minutes. Set broccoli mixture aside.
Place flour in a medium saucepan. Gradually add milk, stirring with a wire whisk until blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes or until thickened. Add 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in spinach. Set aside 1/2 cup spinach mixture.
Combine cottage cheese, mozzarella, and Swiss cheese, and stir well. Spread 1/2 cup spinach mixture in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange 4 lasagna noodles over spinach mixture; top with half of cottage cheese mixture, half of broccoli mixture, and half of remaining spinach mixture. Repeat layers, ending with noodles. Spread reserved 1/2 cup spinach mixture over noodles, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Cover and bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
