Next, add the cooked lentils to the tomato pot sauce
In a baking pan prepare the lasagna pasta and make sure to put them for a few minutes in medium warm water in order to have them a bit softer when placing on the baking pan! First, one layer of pasta, than a lentil and tomato sauce layer another layer of noodles and another layer of lentil and tomato sauce
And so on until you don't have any sauce left! It's important to cover the lasagna completely as well as the pasta otherwise the noodles will still be hard after taking out of the oven
Finally, cover the lasagna with some vegan cheese slices of your choice! Bake in the oven for around 30-35mins at 200°C
