Dairy-free lasagna filling

This is an email from a family friend.

This is to replace the cottage cheese layer. It's from the
Moosewood 'new classics' cookbook:

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup fresh chopped basil
- 10 ounces fresh spinach, steamed and drained
- 3 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
- 2 cakes firm tofu (12 oz each), cubed (I use the smooth variety & it works
really well)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

In a blender or food processor, whirl them all together to make a smooth
filling, scraping down the sides with a spatula as needed.

It's easy! Then you just layer it into the lasagna before you cook it.
