made the WW “Cremini Vegetable Lasagna” tonight, and it was really good. Portion was 1/12 of a 9×13 pan and 4 points per serving but again, it was tasty! Oh, and I added a layer of roasted vegetables for more nutrition. There’s no actual cream in this creamy lasagna. Pureed tofu adds wonderful creaminess to the sauce without imparting much flavor. Pair this Italian classic with a tossed mixed greens salad and call it a meal. There’s no need to precook the lasagna noodles.
