– Serves 9 large portions.

Can be made in a lasagne dish, or made as individual portions on the plate.

Nut Cheese
2 cups macadamias, soaked 4 hours or more
1 cup pine nuts
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 yellow pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water as needed

Vegan Lasag
1/2 cup walnuts, soaked 1 hour or more
1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, soaked for 1 hour or more
1 tablespoon dark/brown miso
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried sage
1 tablespoon nama shoyu
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon agave nectar

– Grind all ingredients in a food processor, leaving the mixture slightly chunky.

Tomato Sauce
1 1/2 cups sun-dried tomatoes, soaked 2 hours or more
2 soft dates
2 cloves garlic
2 cups tomato, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/3 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice

– Process in a food processor until smooth.

Green Pesto
2 cups tightly packed basil leaves
3/4 cup pine nuts or walnuts
1/2 cup olive oil
1teaspoon salt
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon lemon juice

– Process all ingredients, leaving plenty of chunkiness!

Spinach Layer
6 cups torn spinach
5 tablespoons dried oregano
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

– Place all ingredients in a bowl to marinade and wilt for 1 hour or longer, putting the covered bowl in a dehydrator will help this process but it’s not essential.

Needed For Assembly
– 5 medium courgettes (zucchini), cut lengthwise and marinated in 1 tablespoon of salt and 3 tablespoons olive oil for 10 minutes. Pinch black pepper

Assembly Method
– Line the base of your dish with a layer of the courgette strips that slightly overlap.

– On top of this put down a layer of the walnut meat, then the cheese, then tomato sauce and finally the pesto on top.

– Finish this with another layer of slightly overlapping courgette strips.

– Repeat step 2 but before adding the final layer of courgette, take your wilted spinach and create an additional layer with that.

– Placing the whole dish in the fridge for several hours will firm it all up slightly which will make it easier to cut into portions.
