We absolutely loved this! We did add Parmesan cheese in place of nutritional yeast since we still consume dairy. But I absolutely loved the sauce with all the veggies and tofu. My toddler also loved it so I’d call this a major win. But the pasta amount it calls for was confusing. In grams, what it calls for feels like so little. I cooked closer to 400g pasta and we had a TON of extra sauce.

Hey Amanda, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with the casserole! It's such a win when the little ones enjoy a recipe 🥰 Thanks for flagging the shell pasta weight as well. You did well to adjust the pasta amount to suit your needs, though I just checked our notes and we did indeed use just over 300 g pasta… I guess we just like ours extra saucy, haha! Happy cooking✨

What an amazing dish! I have some of the sauce left and was wondering if I could just put that in the freezer for next time?

Hey there, Santina, so glad you enjoyed it! We haven’t tried freezing the sauce ourselves, as tofu tends to hold onto ice crystals, which can make the texture a bit grainy or separated when thawed. That said, if you're okay with a slight change in texture, it might still be worth a try! We'd love to hear how it goes it you test it out ☺️

Make this when you’re craving comfort food in the summer/springtime! Much flavour, very filling, super delicious!

Delicious flavors! I would add more pasta, salt, and extra crunchy topping next time. 👍

We loved this meal! The sauce was so creamy and the addition of tofu was a complete win! Cosy, tasty and perfect for a midweek meal.

I added 1 teaspoon of salt more and it still wasn’t enough for me😅

We loved it!

A winner in our house. My baby absolutely devoured it. I replaced the peas by broad beans and it was delicious. Now on the weeknight rotation.

I just made this for dinner, my toddler LOVED it! I had a few scoops that didn’t fit into the oven dish, and I definitely think baking it makes for a nicer thick texture - similar to ricotta. I’ve made lots of similar pasta sauces with silken tofu, I was excited to try using a firm tofu and it didn’t disappoint!!!

Woohoo! It means so much that the casserole was enjoyed, Ruby, thanks for giving it a try 🤗
