For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese between the layers. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to blend the marinara sauce before adding it to the meat mixture. Feel free to customize the recipe by adding your favorite vegetables, such as sautéed mushrooms, onions, or bell peppers, to the meat mixture. Let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the lasagna to hold its shape better.

Spread a thin layer of ricotta cheese evenly over the noodles, then sprinkle with a portion of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layering process, ending with a final layer of meat and sauce on top. Reserve about 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese for later. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
