For a richer flavor, use whole milk ricotta cheese.
Be sure to squeeze out any excess moisture from the spinach after washing to prevent a watery lasagna.
You can substitute the tofu with an additional 15 ounces of ricotta cheese or 1 pound of cooked ground meat for a non-vegetarian version.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the ricotta mixture, such as sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, or bell peppers.
For a spicier lasagna, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the ricotta mixture or tomato sauce.
