How could I not think of this before? Tofu skin sheets as a lasagna noodle replacement.

I am figuring that if you are here reading this that you know how to make a lasagna. All I am doing is telling you that using tofu skins is a win for a low carb recipe.

I had about 30 oz of leftover sauce (see my recipe for "Sunday Sauce") with 6 meatballs and 4 Italian sausages.
