Remove from heat; set aside.
2. Combine ricotta cheese and egg substitute in a bowl; stir well.
3. Preheat oven to 325°.
4. Coat 2 (1-quart) baking dishes with cooking spray. Cut each noodle in half crosswise. Place 2 cooked noodle halves in a single layer in bottom of each dish. Top each with one-fourth of turkey mixture and one-fourth of ricotta cheese mixture. Sprinkle each with 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese and 1 1/2 teaspoons Parmesan cheese; repeat layers with remaining noodle halves, turkey mixture, ricotta cheese mixture, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
