Classic Beef and Ricotta Lasagna
Layers of lean beef and whole wheat noodles baked with a creamy ricotta-spinach mixture and savory tomato sauce for a bubbling, golden finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz 93% Lean Ground Beef
1 pieces Whole Wheat Lasagna Noodles
0.25 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
0.5 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
0.5 cup Tomato Puree
1 cup Fresh Baby Spinach
0.25 cup Yellow Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Dried Oregano
0.25 tsp Sea Salt
0.25 tsp Black Pepper
0 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small, individual-sized baking dish.
Boil the whole wheat lasagna noodles in salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic in olive oil until translucent and fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, seasoning with sea salt and black pepper, and cook until fully browned.
Stir the tomato puree and dried oregano into the beef mixture and simmer for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
In a small bowl, mix the part-skim ricotta cheese with the fresh baby spinach until well combined.
Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of the baking dish, then top with a noodle piece, half the ricotta-spinach mixture, and a sprinkle of mozzarella.
Repeat the layers, finishing with the remaining meat sauce, mozzarella, and the grated parmesan cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
