Classic Beef and Ricotta Lasagna
Layers of lean ground beef and whole wheat noodles baked with a creamy herb-flecked ricotta and melted mozzarella for a bubbly, golden finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Ground beef (93% lean)
2 sheets Whole wheat lasagna noodles
3 tbsp Part-skim ricotta cheese
0.75 oz Part-skim mozzarella cheese
0.5 cup No-sugar-added marinara sauce
1 tbsp Egg white
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper until fully cooked, then drain any excess fat.
Stir the marinara sauce and dried oregano into the beef and simmer for 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, egg white, and finely chopped baby spinach until well combined.
Boil the lasagna noodles in salted water until al dente according to package directions, then drain and pat dry.
In a small individual-sized baking dish, spread a thin layer of the meat sauce on the bottom.
Place one noodle over the sauce, followed by half of the ricotta mixture and half of the remaining meat sauce.
Add the second noodle, the rest of the meat sauce, and top evenly with the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
