TOFU BASIL RICOTTA
From my new FAVORITE cookbook: Veganomicon. This is an amazing vegan filling for stuffed shells, manicotti, lasagna or topping pizza or pasta. Simple to make, possibilities are endless!! The best tools for this one are clean hands. They are the most effective for squishing the tofu to "ricotta-like" consistency. The recipe listed below is enough for one(1) layer in a 9x13 lasagna pan. Can be doubled if you like more "cheese" in your lasagna layers.

- In a food processor, combine extra-firm tofu, mozzarella, nutritional yeast, basil, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Pulse, pausing to scrape down the sides of the processor as needed, until the mixture is almost smooth and the basil is chopped and evenly distributed. Do not overprocess, the tofu should still have a slightly grainy texture.

- While the tofu is pressing, put the basil, tomatoes, oil, and lemon juice into your blender or food processor and pulse to get a chunky mix, then transfer to a large bowl. If you don't have a blender or food processor, just mince the basil and tomatoes as finely as you can, then transfer to the bowl along with the oil and lemon juice.
- Crumble the pressed tofu into the bowl, and add the garlic powder and nutritional yeast. Mix well, then set aside.
- On a floured surface, roll out the pastry sheets until they're 1/8" thick, then cut each one into 12 squares. A pizza cutter works great for this, but a butter knife will get the job done, too.

- Cook the shells according to the package instructions. Tip: cook an additional 3 or 4 shells just in case some break apart.
- Drain the tofu. Then blend the tofu with the cashews, lemon juice, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper until a similar texture to ricotta cheese. I prefer to use a food processor but a regular blender will work fine (you may need to scrape down the sides.) Fold in the basil.

- Make the Vegetable Filling: Select the Saute? setting on the Instant Pot and, after a few minutes, add the olive oil, followed by the onion. Cook the onion for 3 minutes, then add the garlic, zucchini, bell pepper and mushrooms. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
- Add the basil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir the mixture to combine and cook for 30 seconds. Select the Cancel setting and remove the inner pot.
- Make the Basil Ricotta: Drain the tofu and blot away the excess water with a few paper towels. For a smooth ricotta, crumble the tofu into the bowl of a food processor. Add the nutritional yeast, garlic, miso, onion powder, salt, pepper, olive oil, basil, lemon zest and lemon juice and blend it until you have a creamy, smooth texture. Taste the mixture for salt, acidity and cheesiness, adding more salt, lemon juice or nutritional yeast, respectively, as needed.
- For a chunkier ricotta, place the tofu in a large bowl and break it into smaller chunks using a fork. Add the remaining ingredients and mix together until the consistency resembles ricotta cheese.

- Cut the sprouted tofu in half. Soak as much water out from each sprouted tofu half as possible. I use paper towels to squeeze out the water, especially since you don't need to worry about keeping the tofu in tact. Depending on how much water remains in the tofu after squeezing it out, you may or may not need to add additional water into the mix while blending.
- Add the tofu, along with all the other ingredients, except for the additional water, into a food processor.
- Pulse a few times until you come to a thick, yet somewhat smooth consistency. The basil leaves should not be completely blended in and the tofu should not become a puree (in other words, the final mixture should still be white in color from the tofu with the basil very finely chopped and mixed in).
- Feel free to add 1-2 tbsp water if needed for consistency or to aid with the blending process. The final consistency should be a very thick, spreadable mixture and NOT pour-able (if it is, then your mixture contains too much water and/or you blended for too long).

- Start with the tofu. First we need to prep it and remove excess water. Drain the package of tofu then cut into 5 strips. Lay 2 paper towels (or one clean kitchen towel) on a baking sheet. Place tofu strips on top of paper towels. Lay 2 more paper towels over the tofu. Place another baking sheet (or heavy flat-bottomed object) then a fairly heavy book on top of that (because you don’t want the book to get wet!) and set aside for 30-40 minutes. This absorbs excess water in tofu. Could also use a tofu press if you have one.
- After the tofu has been pressed, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place tofu in a medium-sized bowl and crumble with a fork until it resembles ricotta cheese and all large clumps are crumbled. Mix in all ingredients for tofu ricotta. Taste test and adjust accordingly. Set aside.
- In a 9×13 in baking dish, spread a thin layer of tomato basil marinara sauce (about 1/2-1 cup). Then do one layer of noodles (3-4; depending on the size of your baking dish) one layer of zucchini strips, tofu ricotta, spinach and sauce. Then repeat for 2 more layers, ending with a layer of noodles, then sauce (don’t skimp on the sauce or the noodles will dry out!). Top with breadcrumbs and nutritional yeast.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 50-60 minutes (You want to be sure the zucchini is cooked!).

- Make the ricotta, place the half block of tofu in a paper towel and squeeze over the sink to get some of the liquid out. Get as much out as you can. Now place the tofu and the remaining ricotta ingredients into a food processor. Pulse for 30 seconds or 1 minute until smooth but still has a little texture and looks like ricotta. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Now take one slice of bread and spread a good amount of vegan ricotta onto the bread, top with fresh basil, blackberries and a drizzle of agave.
- Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron skillet or regular skillet on medium high. Place the sandwich in the pan and place something heavy on top for a minute or two( I like to use another cast iron skillet) press down as it cooks. When one side is brown, flip over and press again.
- Once the sandwich is nice and brown and warm serve immediately. Repeat with as many sandwiches as you want to make.

- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the lasagna noodles according to the directions on the package. Drain the noodles, rinse with cold water to cool, and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, zucchini, mushrooms, and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly softened. Turned off the heat. Stir in the spinach, cover the skillet, and set aside to allow the spinach to wilt.
- Place the tofu, soy milk, lemon juice, basil, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. Depending on the size of your food processor, you may need to push everything down with a spoon several times between pulses so all the tofu gets evenly crumbled. When you reach a crumbly ricottastyle consistency, spoon the mixture into a large bowl. Stir in the sautéed vegetables and spinach until evenly combined.

- To a food processor**, add the tofu, breaking into pieces while adding. Then add the basil, oregano, garlic powder, nutritional yeast, salt, lemon juice, almond milk, vinegar and maple syrup. Blend until thoroughly combined. If the tofu sticks to the side of the food processor, open the lid, scrape off the sides, and blend again. Don't over-blend.
- This recipe makes 2 cups tofu ricotta cheese (1/4 cup per serving). This ricotta can be used anywhere you would use traditional ricotta, such as in vegan lasagnas, stuffed shells, manicotti, eggplant parmesan, mashed potatoes, (or even pizza, avocado toast, or simply spread on a cracker). Store in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5 days.
