Equipment

  • Oven
  • Stove

Ingredients

  • 1 24 oz jar your favorite pasta sauce
  • 1½ lbs ground beef - I used lean
  • 1 15 oz container of Ricotta Cheese - I used Part skim
  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ cups Italian Blend Shredded Cheese
  • 1 tbsp Italian Blend Seasoning
  • 1 oven ready lasagna noodles

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Brown beef in large skillet
  • Mix ricotta, seasonings, egg, and 1 cup of shredded cheese in a medium bowl
  • Pour a small amount of pasta Sauce on the bottom of the a 8x8 baking dish , just enough to lightly cover the bottom
  • Once the beef is browned, pour the remainder of the sauce into the skillet with the beef
  • Place two of the noodles in the baking dish on top of the sauce
  • Spread on a thin layer of the cheese mixture
  • Layer on the part of meat mixture on top of the cheese mixture
  • Place two more noodles
  • Continue to layer cheese and meat until you have reached the top of your baking dish, for me, it was three layers of noodles
  • On the last layer of noodles, pour on the remainder of the meat mixture and sprinkle on the remainder of the shredded cheese
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until heat throughout and the cheese is bubbly and looking fantastic
  • Enjoy!

Notes

I recommend serving with a salad and bread.
