Spoon two thirds of a jar of the bolognese into a deep overproof dish (approx. 25cmx30cm) and spread evenly. Spoon half a jar of the béchamel sauce over the bolognese. Place lasagne sheets over the top of this in a single layer making sure there are no gaps. Next spoon a generous layer of the mushroom and courgette mix.
