Prep time: 30 | Cook time: 30 | Serves: 6
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
12 lasagna noodles
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
Spread 1 cup of the sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Top with 6 lasagna noodles.
Spread with half of the remaining sauce.
Repeat layers. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Why It Works
The roasted vegetables add a delicious depth of flavor to the lasagna.
The ricotta cheese filling is creamy and rich, and it helps to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
The lasagna is baked in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the noodles are cooked through.
This lasagna is a hearty and satisfying meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner.
