Blend tofu, garlic cloves, oregano, basil, lemon juice and nutritional yeast in a food processor until combined. If you want a thinner ricotta, stream small amounts of vegetable broth into tofu mixture while blending until you obtain the desired consistency. Add the fresh parsley and combine.
Add tomatoes, basil, sugar and bay leaves and simmer on low heat for 1 hour. Remove bay leaves and check seasoning.
Add half the tomato sauce into a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining sauce.
You can freeze any left over sauce up to 3 months.
Lasagna Rolls Assembly
Cook the noodles in a large pot of boiling water until al dente according to instructions. Do not overcook. I like to undercook them by 1 or 2 minutes. You don't want them mushy. Drain and rinse the noodles and toss them with a little splash of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large, nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and saute for a minute. Add the spinach, basil, salt and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.(Or you can steam the spinach. If steaming just add basil, salt, pepper and garlic directly to tofu in food processor)
Add the vegetable mixture to the tofu ricotta mixture.
Coat a 13 by 9 inch baking dish with 1 cup of tomato sauce.
Spread aprroximately four tablespoons of tofu ricotta on the lasagna sheet. Roll it up tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining noodles. Spread 1½ cups of tomato sauce over the lasagna rolls. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with chopped basil or parsley or both and serve.
