PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.

• 2

  In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic in olive oil until translucent and fragrant.

• 3

  Add the ground beef, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the skillet, breaking the meat apart and browning it completely.

• 4

  Pour in the marinara sauce and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

• 5

  In a small mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese with the fresh baby spinach until well incorporated.

• 6

  Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom of the baking dish, then top with one lasagna noodle, half the ricotta-spinach mixture, and more meat sauce.

• 7

  Repeat the layers with the second noodle, the remaining ricotta mixture, and the remaining meat sauce.

• 8

  Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top layer.

  Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the lasagna is heated through and the cheese is beautifully bubbly and golden brown.
