Ingredients
- 12 sheets No-boil lasagna noodles
- 16 ounces Ricotta cheese
- 3 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 cups Marinara sauce
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh basil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 2 cups of shredded mozzarella, the grated Parmesan, chopped basil, egg, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is well blended.
Step 2
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly at the bottom of a 9x13-inch lasagna dish.
Step 3
Place 4 no-boil lasagna noodles on top of the marinara sauce, overlapping slightly as needed.
Step 4
Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles, then top with another cup of marinara sauce.
Step 5
Repeat the layering process two more times: noodles, ricotta mixture, and marinara sauce.
Step 6
Finish the top layer with the remaining marinara sauce and 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Step 7
Cover the lasagna tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6-8 hours or overnight. This will allow the noodles to absorb the marinara sauce and soften.
Step 8
When ready to serve, cut into slices and enjoy as a no-cook, chilled lasagna or heat individual portions in the microwave if warm lasagna is preferred.
