Procedure
In a medium bowl, stir together the spaghetti sauce and water.
Combine ricotta cheese, egg substitute, 1/4 cup of the mozzarella cheese and pepper in a bowl. In a food processor or blender, add basil, Parmesan cheese and garlic; process until smooth. Add Italian dressing; process until blended. Fold basil mixture (pesto) into ricotta mixture.
Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Spread 1 cup of the sauce over the bottom of the pan. Arrange 4 pieces of lasagne (3 lengthwise, 1 widthwise) over the sauce. Cover with 1 1/2 cups of the sauce. Spread half the ricotta mixture on top. Arrange another 4 pieces of lasagne over ricotta, and top with another cup of the sauce. Spread remaining ricotta mixture on top. Arrange final 4 pieces of lasagne over ricotta mixture and cover with remaining sauce.
Preheat oven to 350-o F. Cover lasagne with foil and bake for 1 hour and 5 minutes. Uncover lasagne, sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese on top and bake an additional 5 minutes uncovered. Cover and let stand 15 minutes before serving.
