Ingredients

• 9 sheets lasagna noodles
• 2 cups low-fat ricotta cheese
• 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 large egg
• 3 cups marinara sauce (low-sodium or homemade)
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a clean surface or parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and evenly combined.

Step 4

Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 5

Lay 3 cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce, slightly overlapping them.

Step 6

Spread one-third of the cheese mixture over the noodles, followed by 1 cup of marinara sauce. Repeat this process two more times to create three layers in total, ending with marinara sauce on top.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top layer.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 10

Let the lasagna cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
