Spinach Lasagna#2

In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, cook the lasagna noodles just until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain well. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil to keep the noodles from sticking. Meanwhile, put 3 cm of water into a large saucepan with a steamer basket, cover with the lid, and bring to a gentle boil. Put the spinach in the steamer basket, cover and steam until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the spinach and rinse under cold running water. Use your hands to squeeze the excess water from the spinach. In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic and cook until the onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until all the moisture has evaporated from the spinach, about 2 minutes. Stir in the Tofu "cheese" sauce, and remove from the heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 9by 33 cm baking dish. Place 4 cooked lasagna noodles in the baking dish, overlapping them slightly. Spread with half the spinach filling. Top with 4 more noodles, and spread with the remaining filling. Top with 4 more noodles, and spread the remaining tomato sauce on top. Bake until bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. From DEEANNE's recipe files
