Use your hands to squeeze the excess water from the spinach. In a large skillet heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion broccoli mushrooms and garlic and cook until the onions are softened about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook stirring until all the moisture has evaporated from the spinach about 2 minutes. Stir in the Tofu "cheese" sauce and remove from the heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Place 4 cooked lasagna noodles in the baking dish overlapping them slightly. Spread with half the spinach filling.
