Towering Tofu Lasagna with Eggplant and Zucchini

Juicy layers of pan-seared tofu, eggplant and zucchini topped off with melty cheese and fresh tomato slices. Healthy and doesn't take forever to make! Go vegetarian or, if you want a little bit of meat in there, use a meaty tomato sauce. This makes enough for an 8x8 inch square baking or gratin dish. You can use just eggplant or just zucchini if you like too. This recipe can be easily doubled for more!

Steps
- 1
Wrap tofu in a paper towel and microwave for 1-2 minutes. Discard paper towel and cut into 8 equally thick slices.
- 2
Slice zucchini and eggplant into into round slices 1/2 inch or 1 cm thick. Cut the tomato into thinner thin slices.
- 3
Heat about 2 Tbsp oil in a frying pan on medium. Lightly fry tofu, eggplant and zucchini slices on both sides until a little browned/a little softened, then sprinkle with salt, pepper and herbs. Add more oil to frying pan if things start to stick. Eggplant tends to need more oil than other things.
- 4
Grease a gratin or baking dish with a bit of vegetable oil, and pour in about 1/3 of the tomato sauce. Lay down 4 slices of tofu as the bottom layer with zucchini layer on top of that. Pour over another 1/3 of the sauce. Sprinkle in some fresh ginger here if using.
- 5
On top of that, add layer of eggplant & remaining tofu slices. Pour over remaining sauce.
- 6
Sprinkle cheese evenly over the lasagna. Lastly, lay the slices of tomato over top. Place in toaster oven or top rack of oven and turn on broil setting. Cook until the cheese melts and slightly browns. I think I baked mine a bit too brown here, but YUM!
