1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 large onion, chopped
3 cups sliced mushrooms
2 cloves roasted garlic, minced
3 cups broccoli florets, blanced
1/4 cup sliced black olives
1 cup low-fat ricotta cheese
1/2 cup silken tofu
2 tablespoons packed soy protein powder
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon basil

3 cups tomato sauce
12 ounces shredded soy mozzarella

Preheat oven to 350 F. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet; add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook until mushrooms are soft, about 3 minutes longer. Remove from heat and add broccoli and olives. Mix gently. Combine ricotta cheese, tofu, soy protein powder, and herbs in a medium bowl until blended. Bring 4 quarts water and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and boil 12 minutes or until tender. Drain and rinse under warm water. Moisten the bottom of a 9X9-inch pan with 2 tablespoons of the tomato sauce. Put down a single layer of noodles. Spread with one-third of the ricotta mix, one-third of the vegetables, 2/3 cup tomato sauce, and one-fourt of the mozzarella. Repeat twice. Cover with remaining noodles, tomato sauce, and mozzarella. Bake in a preheated oven for 45 minutes or until bubbling.
