I used this recipe as a basis/basic idea, and made my own variation on it with what I actually had in my kitchen. I used rotini pasta, with tofu, tomato sauce, herbs/spices, onion, and peppers. I mixed in the cheese, and layered a bit of cheese and italian bread crumbs over the top when I baked it. It made a great meal, and good leftovers!

Easy, delicious way to eat tofu! I used DeCecco penne pasta and Prego Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms. Only problem was the top got too browned, so next time I'll either take it out at 20 minutes or else lower the heat. I used more chese than recipe said. Will definitely make many more times! Thank you Krista for recipe.

Great base recipe. I like the idea of using tofu here. It's bland as is, but as the submitter stated, ït's a good start. I'm a garlic lover, so I throw in about 4 cloves of garlic (yes...I know), as well as green pepper, lots of mushrooms, lots of onions, some scallions, and huge amounts of pepper. My mouth was burning... but I loved every minute! =)

This was SO GOOD! I have been been searching for ways to make healthful vegetarian dishes, and this one was amazing! I especially liked how there was tofu incorporated into the sauce, and how there wasn't much cheese at all. This dish was also very filling on not a whole lot of calories, which was very nice. I will definately be making his again. Thank You!

A great meatless dish! I used cheddar instead of mozzarella cheese because it was what I had handy. I'll definitely be making this recipe again.

This was VERY good. I added mushrooms and a lot of garlic and some artichokes all chopped up. I also added some Italian seasonings to the sauce as I like it with a lot of flavour. I would make this again and again esp when I am in a hurry. Tastes even better the second day. My 5 yr old loved it too. Thanks.

This recipe was really simple. I didn't use the crumbled Parmesan cheese, instead I found a 4 cheese mix that had Parmesan in it and used it instead. My family loved it. I will make this again.

This was the first tofu meal I've eaten let alone made! It was quick and easy and very yummy. Even my husband enjoyed it and "could handle" having it a couple times. His and my only complaint was that I customized it to 2 servings and there wasn't enough it was so good!

As is, I give this a three star, because it is very bland. I would give it a five star as a base recipe. Made with my homemade Italian sauce, more mushrooms, and more tofu, it is a great recipe. This recipe can easily be added to. Green Peppers would also be a nice addition. So experiment and I am sure you can make this into a recipe that you will enjoy.

This was pretty good- my first time using Tofu in anything - It was easy to make - I think next time I might use shredded parmesean instead of grated..

This was really good! Like someone else, said, it's really the sauce you use that makes or breaks it. I made my own tomato sauce. I also quadrupled the recipe, and used penne instead of shells. I didn't use any of the cheese, but the tofu sure fooled everyone as ricotta! Also, I sauteed zucchini slices and a portabello mushroom. I decided to layer it like lasagna, with sauce on the bottom, a layer of noodles, some mushroom and zucchini chunks, then the tofu (used more), and then started over with the sauce. I ended it with sauce on top and sprinkled chopped black olives all over the top. Yum, yum, and quite healthy!!! Next time I'll try it with lasagna noodles!

Great basic recipe where you can add what you want! I made 4x's the amount to be able to use a whole block of tofu and used a whole jar of spaghetti sauce instead of tomato sauce and added fake bacon and some sliced olives. I added garlic powder and italian seasoning since the spaghetti sauce is a tad bland. Great starter recipe! Oh and i used soy cheese instead of real cheese to make it a vegan dish :)

I've made this recipe a few times--it's one of our favorites. I use the entire block of tofu and adjust the other ingredients accordingly. I also add a lot of onion, garlic, and much more mushrooms. Hunt's tomato sauce with basil, garlic, and oregano is perfect (at least for us). This recipe freezes well, and, unlike another reviewer, I found that it heated just fine in the microwave.
