Ingredients

Before we get started, gather all the ingredients you’ll need:

12 lasagna noodles
1 pound ground beef or Italian sausage
2 cups ricotta cheese
1 egg
3 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 cups marinara sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Now, let’s whip it all together and get cooking:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or sausage until browned. Drain excess fat.
Add the marinara sauce to the meat and stir until combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together ricotta cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Now, it’s layering time! Start with a layer of meat sauce at the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Add a layer of noodles, followed by a layer of the ricotta mixture, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Repeat these layers until you run out of ingredients, finishing with a layer of meat sauce and topping it off with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Cover with foil (don’t let it touch the cheese!) and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy the love in each bite!
