sounds good.. but i wonder if i can use ground beef instead of tofu. anyone know how i would? i guess brown the meat first then cook it with the rest of the veggies? i'm a new cook so i'm clueless, haha

yes i am sure you can, and it would add plenty of flavor. ground turkey, maybe even lamb. mmmmm

My girlfriend makes a similar recipe all the time, minus the tofu. I can vouch for this way of making lasagna, and say it is truly delicious. And the noodles are free, if you grow zucchini.

yes brown it first. although there are some that you can just throw it on in there. ive never made zucchini lasagna just plain, but it taste better, personally, with the tofu.

edit-if its vegan meat
