Ingredients

  • 1.5 Lbs Ground Beef
  • 1 Medium Onion Diced
  • 4 Cloves Garlic Minced
  • 24 Oz Marinara Sauce
  • 15 Oz Crushed Tomatoes
  • 6 Oz Tomato Paste
  • 3/4 Cup Water or Beef Broth
  • 2 Tsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 15 Oz Whole Milk Ricotta Cheese
  • 8 Oz Cream Cheese Softened
  • 2.5 Cups Shredded Mozzarella Divided
  • 3/4 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 Eggs
  • 3 Tbsp Fresh Basil Chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley Chopped
  • 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • 9 Oz Box San Giorgio Oven-ready Lasagna Noodles

Instructions

  • Get your skillet hot over medium-high heat. Toss in the ground beef and break it up as it cooks. Takes about 3-4 minutes.
  • Throw in the diced onion. Cook it with the meat for another 5 minutes till it gets soft.
  • Add the garlic and let it cook for a minute. You'll smell it when it's ready. Drain off the extra grease.
  • Pour in your marinara, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, and water. Add the seasonings and stir.
  • Turn the heat down and let it simmer for 15 minutes. While that's going on, work on the cheese.
  • Grab a bowl and mix your ricotta, cream cheese, eggs, 1.5 cups of mozzarella, Parmesan, fresh herbs, and garlic powder. Mix till it's smooth.
  • Heat your oven to 375°F.
  • Put about 1.5 cups of that meat sauce in the bottom of your 9x13 pan.
  • Start layering: noodles first, then half your cheese mix, then some meat sauce on top.
  • Do it again: more noodles, the rest of the cheese, more sauce.
  • Last layer is noodles, whatever sauce you have left, and dump that remaining cup of mozzarella on top.
  • Cover it tightly with foil. Bake for 50 minutes.
  • Pull the foil off. Bake another 15-20 minutes till you see the cheese getting brown and bubbly.
  • Let it sit for 15 minutes when you take it out. Don't cut into it right away, or it'll be a mess.
