  Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish, cover the bottom of the dish with sauce, and lay out 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce. Layer sauce, then the ricotta cheese mixture, followed by mozzarella cheese. Repeat this process two more times. Once you have finished laying out the third layer, cover the lasagna with the remaining parmesan cheese.
