Instructions
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant.
Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat, then stir in marinara sauce, salt, and pepper.
In a separate bowl, mix ricotta cheese and parmesan cheese.
Assembly and Baking
In a baking dish, layer lasagna noodles, ground beef mixture, bacon, and cheese mixture.
Repeat layers, finishing with noodles and mozzarella cheese on top.
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Allow the lasagna to rest after baking; this helps it set and makes slicing easier. Don't overcook the meat to prevent it from becoming dry.
