Ingredients
Scale
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 (24 ounce) jar marinara sauce
12 no-boil lasagna noodles
2 cups water
15 ounces ricotta cheese
1 egg
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Drain any excess grease.
Stir in the marinara sauce and water. Bring to a simmer.
Break the lasagna noodles in half and layer them over the sauce mixture.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, egg, and Parmesan cheese. Dollop spoonfuls of the ricotta mixture over the noodles.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Cover the skillet and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with crumbled plant-based protein or extra vegetables like mushrooms and zucchini.
Adjust the seasoning to your personal preference.
Ensure the noodles are mostly submerged in the liquid for proper cooking.
