Madeleine's Lasagna
1 1/2 pounds lasagna noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 pound ground beef
2 jars pasta sauce (we love Mezzetta Homemade Style Marinara when we don't have time to make our own sauce)
1 15 ounce container ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella, shredded
1/2 cup shredded Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 375° Cook pasta according to directions.
In large skillet, saute onion until translucent over medium heat, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and garlic and brown well. Add 1 and 1/3 jars of sauce to meat and bring to boil.
Spray 9x13" pan with cooking spray .Pour half of remaining sauce on the bottom of pan.
Layer 4 sheets of lasagna noodles, top with 1/3 of meat sauce mixture, 1/3 ricotta and 1/3 of mozzarella. Repeat for 2 more layers.
On the top layer, pour remaining jar of marinara sauce and top with a little more mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Bake for 30 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
