Spinach Artichoke Lasagna
1 jar artichoke hearts, minced (almost)
1 28 oz can diced tomatoes
2 big fresh tomatoes, diced
1/2 package vegan soy cheese (jalepeno flavored) grated
2 heaping teaspoons tomato paste
1 splash dried oregano
1 splash dried chilis
1 cup water
4 cups fresh spinach, chopped
half a package brown rice lasagna noodles
1 teaspoon water or vegetable oil
half a large zucchini, sliced and halved
3 large mushrooms, sliced

1/4 white onion large diced sections
This recipe is prepared quickly with a bit of multi-tasking. The noodles, veggies, and sauce can be prepared simultaneously.
Veggies:
Heat oven to high broil. Place zucchini and pepper slices on a tray. Can drizzle these with oil if desired. Cook until slightly soft and the skins are tight. Fry, steam or bake the mushrooms and onions as well. I prefer to fry.
Sauce:
Reduce the can of tomatoes, the fresh tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, and chilis on a high setting. Once it begins to thicken add 1 cup of water then lower the heat and continue to reduce. Before using the sauce add the spinich to the sauce and stir.
Noodles:
Boil water to cook the noodles in.Follow the package instructions.
Cheese/artichoke mixture:
Mix the artichokes and the vegan soy cheese in a bowl. Season well.
After you have all the ingredients together, in a small square casserole dish, layer the ingredients in the following order.
