Source: Vegan Richa | Serves: 4 | Time: 50 min

Ingredients

Caramelized French Onions

1 yellow onion, thinly sliced

2 tbsp vegan butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

½ tsp dried thyme

¼ tsp salt

⅛ tsp black pepper

1 ½ tbsp balsamic vinegar

1 cup #mushrooms, thinly sliced

White Sauce

½ cup raw cashews, soaked for at least 20 mins in hot water

1 cup veggie broth

2 tsp lemon juice

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 tsp italian seasoning - I use a mix of oregano, thyme, sage and rosemary

½ tsp salt

1 tsp miso

⅛ tsp black pepper

For the lasagna

7 no boil lasagna pasta sheets, broken into pieces

1-2 cups spinach, firmly packed

2 cups broth , or water

Red pepper flakes, optional for serving

Instructions

Heat a skillet over medium heat then add butter with onions and cook for about 8 mins, or until onions start to look translucent

Add in the garlic, thyme, salt and pepper and continue to cook until onions turn a golden color

Add the balsamic vinegar or red wine and mix well, continue to cook until onions begin to caramelize. Remove ¾ of this mixture and save to use as garnish later

Add in the mushrooms and mix well, continue to cook for 1-2 minutes

Meanwhile make your white sauce - blend all ingredients together until smooth. Add the white sauce to the onion skillet and mix

Add in the broken pieces of lasagna sheets and 2 cups of broth(use the value in ingredients if you change serving size), press down the sheets so they are completely submerged under the broth completely

Cover the skillet and cook for 12-15 minutes or until lasagna sheets are cooked - make sure to check for doneness and make sure to stir once in between so mixture doesn’t burn on the bottom. Reduce the heat if the mixture starts to stick to the bottom. You can also add in more water if the mixture has thickened too much. (No boil cook abit faster and regular depending on the brand and your stove might need a few extra minutes. )

Once the lasagna sheets are cooked, taste and adjust salt and flavor, mix in the spinach and stir. Remove from heat and cover, let sit for 3 minutes to allow spinach to wilt

Top this with the reserved caramelized onion mixture, some red pepper flakes (optional) and serve warm.
