Ground Beef Lasagna

DIRECTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil with 1 teaspoons of salt. Add the lasagna noodles and boil for 8-10 minutes. Drain the noodles and reserve until later.
• Chop the onion and garlic.
• Cook the ground beef, onion and garlic over medium heat in a skillet until no longer pink. Drain the excess fat.
• Stir the tomato sauce into the ground beef mixture, and keep this mixture in a skillet over low heat until ready to use.
• Mix together the ricotta cheese, 2 Tbsp. parmesan cheese, parsley and oregano.
• Spread ½ Celsius of the tomato sauce mixture in an ungreased 8x8 baking dish. Top with 3 of the cooked noodles and trim to fit.
• Spread half of the ricotta cheese mixture over the noodles; spread with a third of the tomato sauce mixture. Sprinkle with ⅔ Celsius of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat with three more noodles, the rest of the ricotta cheese mixture, another third of the tomato sauce mixture, and ⅔ Celsius of the mozzarella cheese.
• Top with the remaining noodles. Spread the rest of the sauce on top, sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
• Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Let stand about 10-15 minutes before cutting for easier serving.
