Melody's Vegan Noodle Kugel

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

* 1 12-oz package wide vegan noodles (I used farfalle; broken
lasagne noodles would work as well)
* 1 15-oz package soft or silken tofu (I used Nasoya Enriched)
* 3/4 cup Sucanat (you can put in less if this turns out too sweet
for your taste)
* 15 oz. raisins, or more, or less, depending on how much you like
raisins (you can also substitute chopped peaches or some other fruit if
you have a raisin aversion)
* 3-4 tart apples, cut into small cubes (I like Granny Smiths best)
* 1/4 cup applesauce
* cinnamon to taste and for dusting
* cardamom powder to taste
* ginger powder to taste
* vanilla to taste

Directions:

1. Cook noodles according to package directions and drain.
2. Using an electric mixer or blender, cream the tofu with the vegan
sugar, vanilla, and spices until smooth.
3. In a large bowl, mix all of the ingredients together until
everything is well coated with the tofu "batter."
4. Pour everything into a lasagne pan or other pan with high sides.
5. Bake at 425 degrees (F) for about 25 minutes or until the top is
pretty dry and nicely browned.

Enjoy!!!
