What can I make with these ingredients?

I want something yummy and casserole-ish, and of course it must be vegetarian. I'd like to use any/all of:

. eggplant
. potatoes
. onions
. red bell peppers
. zucchini
. mushrooms
. tofu
. Morningstar Farms Recipe Crumbles

Along with olive oil, flour, seasoning, blah blah blah, whatever standard ingredients you'd expect in a dish like this. Any ideas?
 
No, no eggs. The only reason I said vegetarian instead of vegan is because I do, rarely, use dairy products. But I don't actually have any in the house right now. I do have Very Vanilla soy milk, though! :)
 
That's PRECISELY why i assumed it would include no eggs :o

Also, I'm not very versed on the creativity of the vegan community, but I'm aware of some vegan cheeses... Though I'm not sure if they have "dairy equivalents"
 
Slice and blanch the potatoes. Call them pasta sheets. Layer with the veggies (roast ahead of time) and a tomato sauce. Cheese if desired, bake. Veggie lasagna! :)

Sounds good! I left out another ingredient which can be used: tofu. I don't like tomato-sauce-based lasagna, I prefer a creamy style. Can I do something with the tofu to approximate a creamy sauce?

Also, a question about roasting bell peppers--I've seen it done directly on the burner [gas range, obviously], but I've never tried that. Does anyone know...anything about this? :confused: I mean would I just place the pepper on the burner and turn as needed? Won't its skin end up sticking to the burner and making a mess?

(I'm editing my OP to add the tofu.)
 
With the pepper, yep directly on the burner range and rotate as the heat blackens it (with tongs). Once the whole thing is nice and black, put it in a bowl and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. After a good 10-15min, take the plastic off and the residual steam will have separated the skin and you can easily peal it off. Seed and slice however you like. :)
 
use thin sheets of Butternut Squash for the lasagna sheets, chopped mixed nuts, pesto and passata for the layers. I'm not sure about Vegan/veggie cheese though, you'd know what you like.

That reminds me of a meal I had once, the chef just had tofu as the bottom layer, as well as the onions on the next to bottom layer, just slice just perfectly with potatoes with the one up from that, red bell and mixed in with zucchini as to add into the extra crisps and bite to it, she just added the main ingredient of eggplant and mushrooms for the top, and just sprinkled the Farm Crumbles ontop of that, had a few glasses of milk with it :)
