1 cup of diced Onion
1/2 cup of diced Carrots
1/2 cup of diced Celery
1 tablespoon of minced Garlic
1 12 oz bag of Quorn Meat-less & Soy-Free Grounds
1 14.5 oz can of petite diced tomatoes
1 24 oz jar of pasta sauce
1 cup of vegetable broth

1 cup of Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
2. Heat a few teaspoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
3. Saute your diced vegetables for 5-10 minutes or until they soften.
4. Add the Quorn "meat" and cook per instructions and add the diced tomatoes.

9. Prepare the cheese sauce by combining all three cheeses, eggs, basil paste and salt and pepper
10. Assemble in an 8x11 casserole pan by layering in this order: meat sauce, lasagna noodles, cheese sauce, meat sauce, lasagna noodles, cheese sauce and be sure to end with meat sauce. Top it all with a mixture of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
11. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and back for 40-50 minutes. Remove the foil and then bake for another 10 minutes.
