Step 1

Here are the four easy steps for a delicious vegan pesto lasagna:

Step 2

Pesto Preparation: To begin, blend the walnuts and garlic in a blender. Add the basil leaves, extra virgin olive oil, and salt to taste. Adjust the density by adding more oil if necessary and add nutritional yeast at the end.

  • garlic
  • basil leaves
  • extra virgin olive oil

Step 4

Béchamel Preparation: Melt the margarine in a pan over medium heat. Add the GF all-purpose flour and whisk constantly to avoid lumps. Pour in the vegetal milk and cream, previously heated. Bring to a boil for a few minutes and adjust with grated nutmeg and salt.

Step 5

To assemble the lasagne, place a bit of béchamel, pesto, green beans, and potatoes on the bottom of a baking dish and cover with the pasta sheets. Repeat this process three more times until you have four layers. For the last layer, cover with only béchamel and top with the remaining Parmigiano cheese and some veggies. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 170° C. Allow the lasagne to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
