Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bring a large pot of water and half the salt to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles for 8 to 10 minutes until tender. Drain the noodles and cut them crosswise in half.
While the water heats, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, for 5 to 7 minutes until browned. Done when browned and opaque, 160°F.
Add the minced garlic and marinara sauce to the skillet with the beef. Simmer for 5 minutes over low heat to meld the flavors.
Spread a spoonful of meat sauce in the bottom of a 5 x 7-inch baking dish. Layer with one noodle half, a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, some remaining salt, a third of the mozzarella, and more meat sauce. Repeat once.
Cover the dish loosely with foil. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil, sprinkle with the remaining third of the mozzarella cheese, and bake for 5 to 10 minutes more until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly.
Remove the dish from the oven and let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes to set the layers before serving.
