Tofu Lasagne with Zenzo Cheese

A pasta lovers favourite! Our Tofu Lasagne is nourishing and tasty. Replacing traditional mincemeat with Tofu gives a new take on flavour and provides an alternative protein source for the dish, and Zenzo cheese gives it the expected cheesy-goodness. Add mushrooms and other soft vegetables if desired and enjoy with a fresh salad.
