One-Pan Skillet Lasagna

Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef
1 small onion chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
8 lasagna noodles, broken
32 oz crushed tomatoes with basil
1 pinch of sugar
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
Chopped fresh basil to garnish

Instructions:

Step 1.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef. Break the beef up into small pieces using a spatula and continue to brown until almost fully cooked. Add in onion, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Cook until onions soften and beef is fully cooked and brown.

Step 2.
Add in broken lasagne noodles, crushed tomatoes with basil, and a pinch of sugar. Stir, cover and simmer on medium-low for 15-20 minutes, until noodles are tender.

Step 3.
Salt the ricotta cheese by adding a pinch of salt to the ricotta in a small bowl and stir until incorporated. Drop the ricotta cheese by spoonfuls into to the skillet. Top with mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. Cover and let the cheese melt, approximately 3 minutes. Top with fresh basil and enjoy!
