In todays video I show you how to make #Lasagne !!!
My Lasagne recipe is probably the best ever..in my opinion. Rich, creamy, cheesy & indulgent. My vegan lasagne Is very much inspired by a traditional lasagnes which I used to make a lot before going vegan. Making a rich vegan ragu & creamy vegan béchamel sauce its actually better than the lasagne's I used to make before going vegan. You must try it!! big love @gazoakley

Just made this for dinner and wow it was incredible. There are no words to explain just how good this was, and the recipe was easy to follow and put together. The best dish i have made in a long LONG time. My boyfriend had 4 portions !
Hi Gaz, wouldn't this go better with some vegan ricotta and/or mozzarella instead of béchamel? Tks
This is the traditional way it's made in the uk with B sauce.
How did you make the sauce? Ours came out burnt with constant stirring and never thickened
@@Hellkite422 don't worry too much about the sauce thickening, if you really want it very thick, add the optional ingredients
Rachel Whitehead thank you for writing this!!! It made it easy for me to choose this recipe to make for Easter out of so many to choose from ❤️
Making lasagna in a white shirt...now that's what I call living on the edge 😅
And not one stain shown..
Haha I was thinking the same thing. ...Was going to comment that! Not even a splash
@@angd5080 hahaha right! 😂
😂
I noticed that. Also noticed his beautiful cutting board (complete with bark) and that amazing trivet. The kitchen is beautiful, as is the chef. He's convinced me to go vegan.
I love how you meantioned the recycling of the can. No cooking i have seen has EVER emphasized recycling.
@oneofthemillion wtf is wrong with you? Lol
Was literally just thinking that!
classic vegans L U L
Yeah because recycling doesn't do shit lol. Literally something you do to feel better
@@kameron1060 classic book vegan, lol
Dear lord, if I found me a good vegan man who could cook like this I’d be set for life 😆

@@dr.joachimwerner3790 I know you think saying shit like this makes you sound tough and authoritative, but it honestly just makes you sound insecure and insignificant.
Hey Gaz! I'm Italian and I made this tonight, swapped the mince for lentils and dried mushrooms, and I used oatmilk for the besciamelle... Wow, my dad asked for a second portion and he is totally not a fan of vegan swaps! This is definetely going to become a staple of mine to impress non vegan guests... Thank you!!! Love your videos you're one of my biggest vegan inspirations.
Can I ask what Vegan cheese you used? I prefer to use oat milk for the Béchamel sauce too 😊
Actually I only added 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast when the sauce was done, no vegan cheese involved. It crisped up nonetheless!
Thank you for being an open-minded Italian! LOL! A lot of Italian people are very rigid when it comes to their "traditional" recipes, and I'm glad that you're willing to try new things : )
I've got this in the oven right now! I'll keep you guys posted. So far the separate parts are awesome!!
UPDATE: Really phenomenally delicious! The cheesy aspect of this is very convincing. My kids and husband devoured it! I made no changes. Not much else to say except MAKE THIS!
Thank you!! I will try this out this week. We are not vegan but want to be but are the pickiest basic eaters on earth. I have never tried egg plant, mushrooms, fresh celery, etc...
This is on my list for this week... : 0 )
@@graphicsinc.6788 You will not be disappointed I promise! I made it exactly as he did and everything was completely on point. The bechamel was incredible and extremely versatile. I will definitely use it for several different recipes!
What kind of vegan cheese did you use?
@@kileycanady1427 I used the Daiya Vegan Cheddar Slices (new and improved taste and texture). It is amazing! I just bunched it up and shredded it. One cup is all, but 3 slices 😊
I’m making a vegan lasagna for my cousin’s 18th birthday tomorrow. I will keep you guys posted :)
(it's not gonna be as good as Gaz makes it. I'm only 15 so not as much practice 😂)
Update: I made it and it’s SOOOO good. Best lasagna I’ve ever had😍😋
Edit: 3 years later I’m making this for Christmas 😂
Tali J that’s amazing
lmao “i’m onLy 15” ayyy congrats
Tali J I made it and you were not wrong
Fucking delicious
Even my parents who hate everything I cook and are weary of vegan food liked it
Nice to hear that
Well Done!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

why is this man so sweet and calming
I've been vegan for 4 years and wow, your lasagna just blew my mind. I'm Italian, from nearby Bologna, where lasagna originally comes from, and I can tell you that yours looks just like the one my grannies make! I'm so going to give it a try soon, when it's more wintery. You're truly talented Gaz, keep it up!
Are you gonna make it?😁
It's not the same thing.. Please...
We used to eat lasagna during Xmas holidays.. Not every day.
@@paolarosichetti4056 it's not? you think? maybe because it's VEGAN! what did you expect :)) :)) :)) it's a vegan chanel!
@@AncaP18 I make veggie lasagna. But with raw cow milk, butter and a lot of parmesan. When you say vegan lasagna, in Italy a granny dies.
Paola Rosichetti you italians are so annoying when it comes to food damn
My husband’s in the military and he’s been in the desert for a month and a half. He comes home tomorrow and I’m surprising him with this meal when he gets home. I’m so excited to make this, thanks boss!!
Ive never made lasagna in my life before so when I did and used your recipe, I impressed my guests and myself! Thank you for your generosity with what you know! These recipes are on point. May you and your family be continually blessed for the good work you do veganizing meals for all of us.
Glad you enjoyed & thank you ♥️
In spite of criticism, I am grateful to witness the way you remain enthusiastic and love creating, cooking and eating incredible food--art really--it is so pure. I am SO excited and count it a blessing to watch you on CZcams!! The heart and work you put into every meal I've seen you create proves time, love and precision of marrying seasons went into each vegan recreation. Gaz, you inspire me to do great things in my kitchen, hahaha. I pray you know your dedication to this profession is not in vain and you see how this helps others new to vegan cooking to stay the course. You promote a channel of conscientious living from food to environment with such care. Please, accept my gratitude as a sort of encouragement. And just so you know, I am saving my pocket lint in hopes it will turn into a currency well enough for me to come from the USA to your grand opening!! Just know you are remarkable. Your art(food): amazing. Your love is evident. Your smile is golden. Your thoughts to share with the WORLD...mind blowing. Thank you Gaz
This is such a lovely comment thank you so much! Your support means the world, I won’t stop, my passion is too big!
What/how do people criticise? This guy is the vegan godfather.
I'm Italian and I love all your recipes and interpretations of traditional dishes. These lasagne look super yummy!!!
thank you 😀
Esatto!
se scrivi “lasagne” non sei italiana hahahahaha
di dove sei? a milano usiamo il plurale

Made this for Christmas and it was a HIT! I used mushrooms diced extremely thin to stretch 1 pack of impossible meat. It was soooo good! I came back today to make it again lol this will be a staple.
What herbs did you use?
I love the 'stretch' idea! Very economical too!!
Gaz, I just made your recipe and eating it now. It is amazing! My mother’s side is Italian, and I grew up on meat lasagna. Your recipe may be your interpretation, but it is a darn good one. There are extra flavors with the vegetables, but it has some of those classic meat and cheesy flavors I miss. Just remember that haters are going to hate. Personally, this Italian is going to keep using your recipes!
Thank you for making a béchamel sauce without tofu..this lasagne looks amazing - will try it 100%
I think alot of American vegans use tofu, for the "ricotta" substitute, but in the UK most lasagna I've ever had only had the bechamel.
Gaz i've made this recipe almost 10 times now! My omnivore parents and boyfriend LOVED it and my veggie friends loved it too! Thank you so much for helping me show them how tasty vegan food can be! 💕🌱
Inês Costa did you manage to find mushroom based mince? I want to try it but can’t seem to find it. Thanks
@@farhanahussain4161 nop i just chop the same amount of mushrooms then dehydrate them
Thanks for your reply. I will look into that! Didn’t think of it :-)
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 couldn't find it in Portugal. Now exists but i prefer the mushrooms
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 nonono there is none! I just chop and dehydrate the mushrooms in a frying pan ahaha
Made this lasagna yesterday for me and my kids and OMG, it was incredibly delicious. Made a whole deep lasagna pan and we only had 3 pieces left for today. My kids aren't even vegan and they couldn't believe how good it was. Sounds like my kids might be making a lifestyle switch. Incredible recipe! Thank you!
I made this a couple of days ago. It turned out AMAZING.
I haven't eaten a lasagna since I went vegan, and I struggled to find a decent recipe. I decided to give this one a try, and OH MY, It was incredible. Tbh I think about it almost every day and how good it was!! Thank you for sharing it with us. (even my flatmate that's not vegan loved it)
Our man Gaz out here teaching us how to take care of our tastebuds and the planet
HAHA
🤣
LMAO trueee
and animals!!
I've found that brown lentils work well as a great alternative to meat or meat substitutes. They're quite peppery too so add a lovely texture and taste 💕
Thanks for the tip, Elizabeth! I find fake meat to be so expensive but lentils are cheap and so tasty!
and red ones tests like chicken...I make Indian curry using them.
Buckwheat has the perfect consistency to substitute the meat.
Elizabeth Scattergood Aromatherapy I agree!
What about tvp (textured vegetable protein)? Ive not tried it yet but from vegetarian cooking videos I watch I hear this is a good alternative to meat
i decided to go vegan not that long ago and I was so sad about not being able to eat my favourite dish anymore! so the first thing I did was look for a vegan lasagne recipe and found this. I tried it today and it is SOOO GOOD! I am so happy I can still enjoy my favourite dish! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for going vegan
Not being able to eat your favourite dishes is the hardest part about going vegan. I am currently transitioning into becoming vegan and for me giving up cheese is more difficult than giving up meat. I am so happy that vegan cheeses exist.
@@user-qj9en1kp1m acualllyy Im from a place where no vegan alternative is available. I'm yet to taste a vegan cheese. But I've tried soy milk. When I tried soy milk when I first went vegan, I hated it. But then I decided to try it after few months again. And I loved it. The one thing about being vegan is, your taste buds do change.
The easiest to veganize 4 the flesh eating family and friends is Lasagne, spag.bol , cottage pie and carbonara.
@@user-qj9en1kp1m there are alternatives for most things these days. Respond with anything specific you’re missing and either myself or someone here will likely know a supplier or a way to make anything you can think of. Crispy duck was one of mine until I discovered Linda McCarney’s vegan duck.
In case anyone is wondering, yes the béchamel works with gluten free flour. I used bobs red mill 1-1 and it tasted great 😍
Did you use GF lasagna sheets? Made of rice flour ?? Trying to find replacement that will taste similar
@@AC-zs8su I used Rizopia oven ready lasagna sheets
@@mikaylaoj thanks
I use Bobs all purpose gf ..Also great.
Modern cooking is vegan/plant based cooking. And it is often a fusion of styles and approaches. Gaz is at the forefront. ✊
You've got to season at every stage in order to let the salt brake (by osmosis) into the cells of the ingredients. Since it's a long process the earlier the better. Heat also helps speeding it up!
Just in case you were wondering why!
Thanks for the explanation, however, aren't you afraid to use way too much salt? Especially in this recipy, most of the times in pre-prepared vegan meats there is a lot of salt already. Do you know if there is an alternative for this, or just not adding it?
Thijs van Esch The oldest trick ever is your solution. Taste before adding salt, or even after if you think it has enough by itself. You never taste too much when cooking.
Inaccurate, osmosis is the movement of water down a concentration gradient. Salt allows water to move out of cells. It doesn’t break into cells.
I made this the night before last exactly as called for EXCEPT using mushroom mince in place of the vegan mince (which would be BEYOND crumbles stateside). I used a vegan boulonnaise recipe using mushrooms on line and adapted it for the vegan mince. It required preparing a day advance to slow-cook the mushrooms. I found a mandolin slicer saved time on slicing. Overall, the lasagna was very tasty and silky-textured. I recommend using a baking pan at least three or more inches deep.
Just made this dish and it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Enjoyed making it and was easy to follow as well. My family and I will definitely be making this again and again...and again.
He’s so cute when he stutters
And even if he doesn't!
Heh
i swear to god no one gets more butt-hurt about making traditionally non-vegan foods into vegan versions than Italians. like i've never found a vegan carbonara recipe that wasn't riddled with people complaining that it "wasn't real carbonara!" yeah... that's the point... it's vegan....
French girl here, it's the same in France... It's so annoying!! Especially when you worked your ass off in the kitchen and everyone loves the recipe, but still have to say its not the real one blablabla
Italians mad at food: twitter.com/italiancomments
@@horvathlg Some guy made lasagna in a mug hahaha -thx for the link
The funniest thing is that people cook traditional dishes differently even in the same country it is from.
@@horvathlg exactly - "my family's recipe is the best it comes from my grandma"
Added a vegan cheese sauce to the bechamel and made this for my bf who loves meat. He usually calls vegan food 'not real food', but he loved this! 10/10 recommend! This would serve four people no problem(:
We’ve made this three times now - it’s one of our favorite recipes, thank you ❤️
Can I ask what Vegan cheese you used? 😊
@@samstevens3432 I live in Istanbul, Turkey. We used a locally produced vegan mozarella. It's called "Orfa the Standard Vegan."
I’m learning so much. Mostly what a courgette and an aubergine are. We call them zucchini and eggplant in Canada. But courgette and aubergine sound good too. Nice recipe - lasagna is bomb.
Courgettes and aubergines actually the French names if those vegetables. Since I learned english through American tv shows I learned zucchini and eggplant as well. I only learned recently that the brits uses the French words which I'm not gonna lie makes things so much easier for me :)
We use it in Dutch as well!
Ophélie-J Which would mean that they’re courgettes and aubergines in French-speaking Canada. 😂
Gaz apologising for the carbonara is the cutest thing ever 😊😊 sending support from Italy 😘
Not apologising 😂 explaining..
avantgardevegan yeah you're right, my fault ✋🏻
@@gazoakleychef I preferred "apologising", italians are quite sensitive when it comes to food. Much love from a recent italian vegan! ❤😊🇮🇹
@@ludovicoriccardonocco5007 to be fair, if you guys were destroying a Cornish pasty, we'd be going mental 🤣
@@lawlini1979 No worries, there's no need for us to go for a Cornish pastry when we already have so many tasty italian options! ahahaha JK
I've made that Lasagna today and it was the BEST one I tasted so far wow! So much flavors
STILL THE BEST!!!
Italian's hang onto their heritage with pride and veracity, so take it as a compliment that they were interested and impressed enough to watch your cooking long enough to defend their heritage. I think you do a miraculous job at re-inventing everything to a high level of gourmet cooking and with this recipe, you don't disappoint.
From a half-breed Italian...Magnifico!
Yup some of them are pazzo
One of the few times I’ve made a recipe I saw online and it came out PERFECTLY. I was SHOCKED by how good it tasted. I hadn’t made a lasagna in years, and never a vegan one. This was INSANE. 10/10
I just made this tonight and it was INCREDIBLE. My absolute favorite lasagne recipe I’ve ever made 😊 I’m so happy to finally have a recipe that doesn’t rely on tofu ricotta and processed vegan cheese (nothing wrong with those, just not my favorite). I left the cheese out of the béchamel and loaded it with nooch. My non-vegan husband devoured it 😊 I’m already excited to eat the leftovers!
What is nooch?
@@b1k2q34 Nutritional yeast. It's a nickname for it 😉
Made this for Christmas. Absolutely phenomenal. Loved by non-vegans, too.
Used a package of beyond beef and a package of beyond meatballs. It slightly resembled Greek pastitsio because of that delicious bechamel!
Will be making this recipe again and again!
Some people. I can’t believe that he even had to explain the carbonara thing 😂
Didn't some one have to teach you at somepoint? Even if you taught it to yourself.
Am I Cool Yet? I think she’s referring to how Italians complain about recipes not being traditional all the time. He had to explain its a vegan version to prevent Italian elitists from commenting.
I have a lot of Italian friends at uni and the easiest way to trigger them is saying things like "Carbonara, you mean that pasta dish that has loads of cream in it?" I can't help but troll them.
This comment is coming from an Italian person (yes, I saw this video many months after it was released) that's approaching vegan diet.
I can say I'm not a typical Italian if for typical Italian you necessarily think about those Italian cuisine traditionalists that always complain about recipes not being right. However, who decides what's a typical Italian? I most certainly love my country's traditions but I'm 100% aware that cooking involves fantasy and creativity so I am fine with a vegetarian carbonara and vegan lasagne (it's plural - lasagne, not lasagna. I'm most concerned about the wrong use of the grammar than about the ingredients list). The thing is: it's very useful to call them that way because people recognize those names so of course if you make pasta with, let's say, tempeh instead of bacon (guanciale), with a egg substitute and nutritional yeast instead of pecorino cheese that is not a pasta alla carbonara, but that's the whole point: it's a vegan version of the least vegan Italian pasta dish so of course you have to swap everything. That makes perfect sense and if you're trying to recreate the same flavors and textures of the original recipe you might as well just call it carbonara. I think it's more a matter of nomenclature than anything else. Is it a carbonara if it doesnt have the only 3 ingredients that carbonara requires? No. Is it important that we call it differently if the aim is to recreate that dish in a vegan version? No.
So people should just chill. All people I mean. Italian fanatics and whoever complains about them.
I also want to point out that lasagne is the type of pasta not necessarily the ingredients you put in and we make all sorts of lasagne. Ever tried with pumpkin and mushrooms? Or with radicchio? Or with pesto? (Just naming a few that can easily be "veganized" but there's many more). So yeah.. nomenclature
@@Ketutar it's different in the UK. We have appropriated the carbonara dish and if its white creamy sause with long pasta then people will call it carbonara. Sorry but its just the truth
You da one Gaz
thank you!!
I've tried making lasagnes many time but they always end up quite badly, so I gave up on them. When I saw this video I decided to give them one more try and I followed the recipe step by step. It was so much worth it. I finally made, not a good lasagne, but a delicious one. Thank you so much for your content, Gaz.
Made Gaz's lasagna a couple nights ago. Truely amazing. The cheesy sauce is so silky and creamy, we made enough sauce for the next meal. It became alfredo sauce for the quinoa pasta dinner last night. Gaz, you're a genius in the kitchen! Thank you for sharing your expertise.
I have made this recipe a million times over the past few months because it is the BOMB! I love love love all of your recipes! ❤️ Your recipe books are absolutely incredible!
First off, I am loving the editting in these recent videos 🤩 second, I've been following you for a couple years now and I love that you don't edit out most of your mistakes or mispronunciations - just makes it even more lovely to watch. You're my biggest chef inspiration Gaz - thank you for being you and keep sharing your wonderful creations! Ps. The book is brilliant!
I'm Italian and I feel like apologizing my self! Italians sometimes live in the past and are really proud of the Italian cuisine so they will try to hate anything that doesn't correspond to the original recipe. Of course the vegan version is not going to be exactly like the traditional one for obvious reasons. Sometimes people are ignorant and just can't make a change.
Italians...move on!
It's good to be passionate :)
☺ change is good
The Water Warrior not when it comes off at conceded and arrogant :)
I’m pretty sure Italian nonnas argue with EACH OTHER over what the ‘correct’ traditional recipes is anyway, right? Love Italy and love the people, they just love to be passionate about what they like!
Every time I attempt to make lasagne turned out into a disaster, however when I followed this recipe it was such a relief: it was creamy, delicious and healthy. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I am excited to do other ones :D

Just made this for the family and it was a huge success! Really really tasty and easy to make! Thanks.
No need to leave it in the fridge! Just let it rest for 20 minutes after removing from the oven, and you get a nice set--but still supple--slice. This lasagna is a thing of beauty, and your little tips throughout the process are helpful. Too hot here right now for this hearty a dish, but I will definitely try it one of the first cool days of Fall. TFP!
At 1:14 I was like "vegan mint"? when is mint not vegan? then I realized it was "Mince"

willcwhite Haha me too
Me 3
Literally same! Lol
Same here lol
I think you can also add lentils especially this dark ones cooked in vegetable broth instead of mushrooms:)
Yes, I agree, it would be great with lentils.
Best vegan lasagne I've ever had! Was the perfect winters evening meal. Can't wait to make this for my loved ones!!
My goodness..that looks heavenly.
Hi Gaz, I'm Italian and I have to say BRAVO it looks amazing!!! Love your channel! I'm gonna try it ;)
ci metti anche l'aceto nel ragù? bleah
Best lasagne I’ve ever made.....ever!
Thankyou sir!
I passed on the mince and used the mushrooms instead, also some lentils, oh and I added a bit of white miso to the bechamel too with the nutritional yeast.
Was unsure how it would turn out (based off my skill), but it's incredible. Like others sais, vwry easy to follow. Been craving lasagne for a couple years now. Bless up, keep doin you
I am not vegan, but I really enjoy vegan mince and I use it quite a lot. I can suggest to try adding marmite/vegemite (or any brand that makes similar product) to the ragú. It gives a very good "meat-y" flavour when caramelized! I am italian and I can say that my family approves too :)
My mother always added a tsp or two of Vegemite when cooking minced meat.
Tried this out tonight. Turned out amazing. I didn't use the zucchini or eggplant because I didn't have any, instead used capsicum, mushrooms and carrots. First time also for me to attempt vegan bechamel and boy did it turn out creamy and cheesy and so delicious.. Gaz, many thanks for always delivering the goods!
Absolutely amazing. I followed your recipe bro and it was delicious. My first Vegan Lasagna. I change a bit of your recipe. Instead of the the vegan mince I used Black Lentils to add the beefy texture. It was a bomb. Hahaha thanks for this fantastic content bro. Respect.
I did this recipe for the 20th time or so and it doesn’t get boring 😂🥰 it really is delicious

Just made this. The absolute best lasagne I've ever had vegan or not. Used tvp with some Italian sausage spices in the ragu. You did it again bro.
the lasagne of my dreams!
Just made this for my husband and he said it was the best lasagne he’s ever had…and I must say it was the most fun to make. Never made a bechamel before…so rich, creamy and next level.
Lasagna time tomorrow. Thank you for your inspiration again 🤗 I have veganized everything last 32 years.
I love how you encouraged to be brave and to explore with food and cooking. That is how new amazing tastes are born 😉
Much love to you.
WOW!!!! Speechless! I'm sure it's the best lasagna EVER! I can't wait to try it and my family can enjoy it, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all your recipes and your wonderful food creations, I'm your # 1 fan or your biggest fan, love you. 💓💞😍🤤
I'm so hungry and watching this it's not helping haha. Love your recipes Gaz, keep up the beautiful work, we support you !
Saw this recipe over a year ago and been wanting to make it but never found the zeal..until tonight..omg....that bechamel sauce is lifeee and that tip about season at every stage made a huggggge difference. Thanks Gaz.
the most perfect lasagna recipe EVER ! the bechamel sauce is incredible
Yaaas!!! I have been SEARCHING for the best vegan lasagna out there and I should have known that it would be my man, Gaz, who would deliver! I don't want a 'healthy', 'veggie' lasagna... NO! I want a creamy, cheesy, rich lasagna that pairs well with a hearty red and some bread, baby! Can't wait to make this!!
Me too , I accidentally discovered him
This is the first recipe I made of yours and my family was so impressed I’m not actually a talented cook but I think the recipe speaks for itself it was so good
I was a vegetarian for years and through my son, I've turned vegan. I've been cooking with many veggies and turned them into wonderful meals just like your lasagne now. So, I've been getting ideas from your show and doing them myself. I can serve them to friends and maybe they'll turn vegan too. 😊 Thanks for these tips. 👍
I've made this twice now! The second time I made some of my own edits to the recipe (sorry gaz!) and it is EPIC. My edits in case you do want to know :)
- cut out balsamic vinegar ( I don't like the taste in general so i just didn't like it in the meal)
- Sizes of stuff:
- - 2 x 375 gram bags of mince,
- - whole eggplant not half
- - 5 cloves of garlic at the start, 2-3 more later (love garlic and I think here it's not as strong as in some countries)
- - 3 cans of chopped tomatoes not 2, 2 made it too dry and not tomatoey enough
- lots more salt and pepper than the first time, salt in the bechamel sauce also.
- 1 x crumbled veg stock cube into ragu
- a pinch of smoked paprika in ragu,
- and being very careful with the puree - first time I put too much and I think it tasted like pizza sauce.
- bit of butter into the ragu
- put nutritional yeast into bechamel
- cooking the ragu a lot longer - like at least 30 min after tomatoes and mince lol! First time i was in a rush...
Your videos actually make me so excited to cook food. My dishes are always super simple and I rarely make things completely from scratch. Recipes like this make me wanna take the time out of my day to cook something truly delicious. I've made a few of your recipes and they always turned out so good, the time & extra ingredient money spent really pays off.
As an Italian subscriber I love veggie lasagna! My favourite is green with spinach in the pasta, with artichokes, peas, carrots, mushrooms and courgettes.
I just made this, it was so so so good! I didn't add any vegan cheese to the bechamel, but a few tbs of miso paste instead. It was an awesome alternative to get that umami going 😋😍 Imma need to do it again soon, I loved it!
Just started making this for thanksgiving…again! It’s our annual thanksgiving tradition!!!
Love the little can recycling tip + use of water for extra liquid :) something I’ve caught onto aswell!
I just made this and my whole non vegan family absolutely LOVED it, thank you so much now i will be following more of your recepis FOR SURE! 🌱
I made this a couple of days ago, more or less following the recipe, adding a bit of extra veg (whatever was left in the fridge).
It's incredible.
This recipe is amazing. You would never guess that its vegan. The béchamel is mad.
I'm vegetarian, trying out veganism for a few months and my flatmates are meat eaters. They had a portion of the lasagne and said that they could eat it everyday and didn't miss the meat, cheese or milk.
Thanks man! Its recipes like this that make a plant based diet seem equally as delicious, easy and creative, not at the expense of animals.
I just discovered your channel and I'm in love. I went shopping straight away and cooked this lasagne for my non vegan flatmate and me (vegan). And let me tell you...it was sooo good. He couldn't get enough of it. Me as well of course. Thank you for your passion and help.
I know it doesn't belong here...but you are so incredible handsome. ☺️
I love this! I keep TVP and vital wheat gluten in my house. I'm a Pescetarian going vegan. Its hard but I'm proud of myself because the majority of the foods I eat now are vegan. I'll be trying this recipe. Thank you for sharing!
Homeschool Royalty you will do it eventually I promise ! Good luck ❤️
@@rach2708 Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!😍
Homeschool Royalty no problem, message me if you need anything ❤️
11:32 had me in tears. 😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀 When pouring cheese sauce is sexy and it gets its own " bom chicka wah wah" moment to shine, lol.
Looking good, boo! 😘
@adweeb Thank you :)
This comment gives me life 😂😂😂😂
Made this yesterday and it was the perfect valentines meal for my husband and I. Thanks Gaz, your recipes are always fabulous! Working our way through your books xx
FIVE STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I just made this lasagna and it blew my mind. I served it to my mother-in-law who said said “oh well, there’s cheese in here, though.” Nope! The vegan bechamel is unreal luscious and this would be delectable to anyone, vegan or not. Not a complicated recipe either. This will be in my regular rotation. Thanks Gaz!
I made today Gaz, I have got to be totally honest....
It has to be one of the best vegan lasagnes I have tasted, so a huge thank you, this is going to be a family favourite from now on. The negative is I ate far too much and now feel like I am actually going to explode lol so thanks for that lol
In Australia we say Eggplant and Zucchini 😅
Eggplant and Zucchini... Americanisms!
😂 thank you! Now I don't have to look it up!
I was wondering what those were too 😅
Saved me a Google search
Update: it's specifically an Italian eggplant which apparently does taste different from regular eggplant. And yeah the green one is a zucchini
I rarely leave comments but wow. I made this today and it is next level good. The cheese sauce (I made with almond milk and it is still good) is absolutely amazing and the the filling is so light and filled with veggies. I've never taken my time and made something this involved before and I'm so so so happy I did. Thank you so much for sharing.
Everytime I watch your videos, I want to go through it and taste your food. Love your videos!
Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.
You're always a very happy way to start the day!! 😊💖
good to hear 😀
BEST LASAGNE EVERRRRRRR!!! This was the first lasagne I ever made and even tho it wasn’t nearly as pretty as yours, it tasted SO GOOD 😍😍
I have just tried it! This is so tasty and full of colour, texture and nutrintw! Thank you so much
Love your pop up Avatar at the title .
I made my friends a vegan lasagna with kale, butternut squash, tomato sauce, dun dried tomatoes I n olive oil and Italian herbs, no cook lasagna sheets and vegan cheese, and they all loved it! Thx for posting your recipe 😁 I'll try it soon!
Would you like to come up with a vegan version of Greek Moussaka? Best KJT.
Yesss!!!!!!
From now on, I'm telling all my friends I've prepared a dish with aubergines and courgettes. Sounds way fancier than what we call them in the States :P
What do you call courgettes? (I know what Americans call aubergines)
Tess C-B I think it's zucchini a lovely friend in Pennsylvania made me zucchini bread when I was there many years ago 💕
@@tzar103 thanks
Are they just zucchini and eggplant?
You: "I prepared a dish with aubergines and courgettes."
Your friend: "Who are they? I don't think I've met them before. They helped you prepare a dish?"
I'm never one to comment on a CZcams video but gotta give props to Gaz. I never thought I'd be able to make delicious vegan food. After making your Margarita Pizza and your Lasagne, I am now hooked on cooking. I feel like I now have a direction, thankyou Gaz :)
i made this and it was absolutely delicious! i added more than a 'pinch' of nutmeg, probably a tbl spoon or two and that was it. sooooo good! thank you
