What's for Dinner Wednesdays - Vegan Lasagna

I was vegan a whole 8 months, before I got prego and the only thing that would stay down during my first trimester was an Arby's Beef and Cheddar.  I'm totally going back to vegan after I pop the kid out and can't wait to make this lasagna when I get some energy back!!!!
