How to Make Fantastic Meat Lasagna
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large non-stick skillet, brown 1 lb ground beef with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper over medium-high heat. Drain excess grease.
- Stir in 1 tbsp dried basil, 2 tbsp tomato paste, 28 oz crushed tomatoes, 15 oz pasta sauce, 15 oz ricotta cheese, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Spread a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer with 3 lasagna noodles (adjust based on your preference).
- Top with half of the meat sauce mixture.
- Add another layer of 3 lasagna noodles, followed by the remaining meat sauce.
- Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and lasagna is heated through.
- Let stand for 15 minutes before serving to allow the lasagna to set.
