INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 Whole Wheat Lasagna Noodle sheet
1/3 cup Tomato Pasta Sauce
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground beef until browned and crumbly. Season with garlic powder, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
While the beef cooks, lightly steam the spinach until just wilted, about 1-2 minutes, then set aside.
Prepare the whole wheat lasagna noodle sheet according to package instructions if required (or use as is if it's a no-boil variety).
Layer the dish by spreading a thin layer of tomato pasta sauce at the bottom of a small baking dish. Place the lasagna noodle, then spread a layer of ricotta cheese, followed by a layer of cooked ground beef and wilted spinach. Drizzle a little extra tomato sauce on top.
Repeat layering if your dish size allows, finishing with a top layer of tomato sauce.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until heated through and flavors meld together.
Let cool slightly before serving and enjoy your hearty, balanced meal.
