Being lactose intolerant has meant that I’ve had to either entirely cut out or modify the majority of my favorite foods. Where I once ordered pizza without a second thought (always regretting the stomach ache that was sure to follow,) I now have to take extra precautions to ensure I’m not doubled over in pain after my meals. Pasta has always been one of my favorite foods, and the idea of entirely cutting out lasagna or creamy sauces was heartbreaking to me. When I stumbled on this vegan lasagna recipe, I had to give it a try. And I have to admit–as a cheese lover, it’s almost as good as the real thing!
