Easy Oven-Baked Beef Lasagna with One Ricotta Mixture Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with olive oil.
-
Season the raw ground beef with kosher salt and black pepper, gently breaking it into loose crumbles.
-
In a medium bowl, mix the fat-free ricotta cheese, egg, and grated Parmesan until smooth and evenly combined.
-
Spread 1/2 cup marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
-
Arrange a single layer of no-boil lasagna noodles over the sauce, breaking pieces as needed to fit evenly.
-
Crumble half of the raw seasoned beef evenly over the noodles without pressing it down.
-
Spread half of the ricotta mixture gently over the beef, reaching toward the edges.
-
Spoon 1/2 cup marinara sauce over the ricotta layer and sprinkle evenly with 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella.
-
Repeat the layers with the remaining noodles, remaining beef, remaining ricotta mixture, and another 1/2 cup marinara sauce.
-
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella evenly over the top.
-
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.
-
Bake covered for 40 minutes.
-
Remove the foil and bake uncovered for 15 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and bubbling.
-
Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing into portions.
