This lasagna was amazing. I have made many vegan lasagnas, and this is my #1 favorite. My husband and son are not vegan, yet they finished off the pan. Thanks for a very well-constructed recipe that you clearly spent time testing. It will be on regular rotation at our house.

Kathryn cooking another yummy 😋 recipe with the Lentil Lasagna and it is no wonder Bryan fell in love 💕 with Kathryn (now she can't get rid of him 😆). Love 🥰 the video and love 💓 Kathryn and ❤ Bryan.

I have not made lasagna in a while, and this looks nice and hearty for the coming nippier weather. Also looking forward to the pear salad vid, for the same reason. I love autumnal food! Thanks for posting, and for the wonderful feedback from the Mister! 🙂

Oh, this looks heavenly! I love the pattern the cheese and tomato sauces make on top. I already have most of the ingredients, will print the recipe and try it. :)

I made lasagna some days ago this would've been useful. Next time I'll try it.

[alrimawi]

That looks divine! Adding the ingredients to my grocery list cuz I’ll be making this soon

I made this for my family last night and it was gone before everyone left the table. I questioned the recipe, because of the tomato sauce that was used, but sure enough it is delicious. I combined Miyokos plant milk (mozzarella) with the cheese sauce and it was divine. Thank you for inspiring me to use lentils!

I subbed within 10 seconds of seeing that lasagna - this is so me right now. I was keto for a while and got very sick. Cant wait to make this.

I made this for Meatless Monday.
This Lentil Lasagna recipe is a keeper! All of my guests raved about how amazing it tasted, and they couldn’t believe I made it despite having a busy workday. I followed the recipe exactly, and the time stated was spot on.

I used gluten-free organic brown rice lasagna noodles, which didn’t require pre-cooking. To ensure perfect results, I covered the dish tightly with unbleached parchment paper and aluminum foil before baking it for 57 minutes. The result was absolutely delicious—flavorful, hearty, and satisfying.

I served it with fresh avocado slices and a simple salad, which paired beautifully. This recipe is a winner, and I’ll definitely be making it again. Highly recommend! Immediately subscribed! I can’t believe I’m seeing this very talented and lovable couple for the first time! God bless you!

What’s another core recipe for you? Lasagna is a great staple recipe for gatherings, gifting, and freezing. Any others you always depend on?
