5. Place a few spoons of the vegan minced meat mixture in a baking dish (33 x 21 x 6 cm). Put 3 sheets of lasagna on top, then the vegan minced meat mixture and then the sauce. Repeat until all is finished but finish with the sauce and sprinkle with vegan grated cheese (see video). Bake the lasagna in the oven for 35 minutes.
