Lasagna with Roasted Cauliflower Ricotta and Spinach
I am back to cooking more at home and trying new recipes. This one comes from Appetite for Reduction, a cookbook I definitely want to use more often. I did find I didn't quite have enough of the tofu/cauliflower ricotta so I think next time I'll get a larger cauliflower (if possible) and use more than a pound of tofu. I used fresh spinach. I can't wait to try this, but I'm trying to hold off until at least one of my kids is home to join me. The taste? Maybe a touch bland. I would prefer some pepper in the tofu/cauliflower ricotta, but that's just me. It was light, but satisfying to eat. Brian said he liked it also.

Isa Pizza, Pizza Sauce and Cashew Cheesy Cream
I got a bit adventurous tonight. Amy wanted pizza, and I didn't want to order out, so, I got out Vegan With A Vengeance and made the pizza crust and the pizza sauce for Isa Pizza. The recipes make enough for two pizzas, so I decided to try something. One pizza I did up with veggies (onion, spinach, and tempeh cubes on both) and Daiya (both cheddar and mozzarella styles. The other pizza I made the same way, EXCEPT that instead of Daiya, I used the Cheesy Cashew Cream from the Nirvana Enchilada Casserole recipe in Isa Does It. Both pizzas were good, but I thought the second one was AMAZING. That cashew cream is just fantastic. AND I have four slices leftover for a lunch some time this week! It was Amy's idea to put spinach on the pizzas - we sautéed all the veggies in olive oil before putting them on the pizzas to bake. Needless to say, these pizzas were better than ANYTHING we could have ordered elsewhere.
Did I mention I am beginning to love cooking at home?
