Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Add the diced onion and garlic, and cook until the onion is translucent.
  • Stir in the pasta sauce, crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with the egg until well combined.
  • In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom. Place 3 lasagna noodles on top.
  • Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, then sprinkle with a third of the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layers - meat sauce, noodles, ricotta mixture, cheeses.
  • Finish with a final layer of noodles, meat sauce, and the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
  • Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
  • Let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.
  • Enjoy!
