Creamy Baked Beef Lasagna with Ricotta
Baked layers of lean ground beef and whole grain noodles with velvety ricotta and vibrant spinach, finished with a bubbly mozzarella topping.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz 93% lean ground beef
1.5 sheets whole wheat lasagna noodles
0.25 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.5 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup fresh spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and brown the ground beef along with minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Stir the tomato puree into the skillet and simmer for 3 minutes, then fold in the fresh spinach until it is just wilted.
In a small individual baking dish, spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom.
Layer with half of a lasagna noodle sheet (broken to fit), a dollop of ricotta cheese, and more meat sauce.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of meat sauce and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are slightly crisp.
