Continue to cook, covered, until cauliflower is fully tender, about 10 minutes; adjust heat as necessary to maintain boil while preventing scorching.", "Add coconut oil, basil, and garlic. Using an immersion blender, puree cauliflower until very smooth. Add tofu and puree into cauliflower until well incorporated; the resulting puree should have a slightly grainy, ricotta-like texture thanks to the tofu. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.", "In a small saucepan, combine almond milk with bay leaf, thyme, peppercorns, and garlic. Bring to a bare simmer, then lower heat to maintain a bare simmer for 20 minutes.

Spread an even layer of vegan ""ricotta"" top, then spread a layer of tomato sauce (or vegan ragu, if using) on top of that. Drizzle with some of the bechamel. Repeat in alternating layers of pasta, ""ricotta,"" tomato sauce (or ragu), and bechamel sauce until baking dish is full and/or any of the components is used up. The final layer should be tomato sauce (or ragu) with bechamel drizzled on top. You may have some of the vegan ""ricotta"" left over, which can be reserved for another use (such as spreading on toasts).", "Set baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until lasagna is browned on top and bubbling, about 25 minutes. Let lasagna rest 20 minutes before serving. Cut individual portions and serve while still warm."]
