Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp oil
3 medium sized carrots, chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
680 g passata (you can also use your fav pasta sauce and omit seasonings)
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/4 tsp sage, dried
1/8 tsp chili powder
1/2 bunch parsley, chopped
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp flour
500 ml milk, warmed (as a vegan use non-dairy)
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 laurel leaf, dried
1/4 tsp sage, dried
250 g frozen chopped spinach , defrosted and drained
200 g cream cheese (low-fat is fine , as a vegan use a vegan brand)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 tbsp blue cheese, crumbled (as a vegan opt out of this)
1 tsp psyllium, husk ground (or use flax seeds)
8 sheets whole wheat lasagna noodles
1 cup cheese, grated ( use your favourite

Directions:

For the tomato sauce heat the oil in a large frying pan. When it's hot, add the chopped vegetables and the garlic. Sautee until lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
Then add the passata or pasta sauce and seasonings if using. Simmer for 10 minutes, then set aside.
For the white sauce heat the oil in a pot. When it's hot, add the flour stirring vigorously using a wire whisk for about 2 minutes or until flour is nicely browned.
Add a small portion of the warm milk and stir to combine. Add the remaining milk little by little stirring after each addition.
Season, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 10 minutes or until thickened. Set aside.
For the cream cheese spinach layer combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
When your're ready to assemble the lasagna spread a bit of the tomato sauce in a large casserole dish (mine holds about 5 l/5 quarts). Top with two lasagna sheets and then half of the remaining tomato sauce. Top with another 2 sheets of lasagna and then the remaining half of the tomato sauce.
Then add another 2 sheets of lasagna and on top of that the spinach cream cheese spread.
Cover with another 2 lasagna sheets, pour over white sauce and top with grated cheese (if using).
Place in the preheated oven and bake at 180°C/350°F for about 30 minutes or until bubbly and nicely browned (you might need to cover it after 20 minutes if it gets too brown).
Remove from the oven and allow to set up for 20 minutes before cutting.
Enjoy!
