    How to Prepare Sausage Mushroom Vegan Lasagna [Vegan]

    1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Coat an 11 cup baking dish or 9 x 9 x 3" baking dish with non-stick spray.
    2. Place on a rimmed cookie sheet covered with foil or parchment paper to catch any liquid overflow; set aside.
    3. Sausage and Mushroom Filling: Heat some olive oil, in a large skillet, over medium heat. Cook onions for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    4. Add sausage, using a spatula, and chop it finer into the onions. Mix in the mushrooms, and cook until meat is browned.
    5. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, and cook for 30 seconds longer or until fragrant. Use a mesh strainer to drain the excess liquid, if you like.
    6. Ricotta Filling: Stir ricotta ingredients together in a medium bowl; set aside.
    7. Coat the bottom of the prepared dish with sauce (just enough to coat the bottom). Layer 2 lasagna noodles* on top. Evenly spread with 1/3 ricotta mix. Top with 1/3 of the mushroom mix, and a little sauce to barely cover.
    8. Layer on 2 noodles. and repeat the steps above. Top with 2 more noodles. Repeat the steps.
    9. Add the remaining 2 noodles, and the last of the sauce. Cover with mozzarella to suit. Sprinkle with the Italian Seasoning.
    10. Cover lasagna tightly with aluminum foil. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake and bake covered for 45-50 minutes.
    11. Uncover and bake for an additional 18-25 minutes, depends on how firm or tender you prefer your pasta.
    12. Remove lasagna to a cooling rack, lightly covered with foil, and let rest for 20 minutes. This is very important for any lasagna dish, because it needs time to set and firm up a bit.
