Take a few lasagne sheets and break them roughly into pieces to fit your dish and add a layer into the dish. Spoon over a thin layer of ricotta cheese mix. Evenly sprinkle over a layer of the mozzarella. Finally, ladle over a layer of the tomato and Soya meat substitute. Repeat the same process until you have used all the ingredients, finishing with a final sprinkle of parmesan.
