Vegan Tofu Manicotti Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

There are so many italian recipes that include cheese, especially those that are baked stuffed noodles. This makes it challenging for a vegan to enjoy these types of traditional dishes as most include ricotta cheese. Luckily, this recipe for manicotti uses tofu in place of the ricotta cheese, ideal since both ricotta and tofu are very mild in flavor, creating a similar texture and taste. The tofu "Cheese" Filling includes garlic, soy milk, olive oil, lemon juice, and parsley, making a fresh tasting filling that no one may suspect is vegan.
