Instructions
1. Preheat & Prepare
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
2. Cook the Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart as it browns. Season with salt and pepper. Once fully cooked, drain any excess fat.
3. Add Garlic & Marinara
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the marinara sauce and let it simmer for 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
4. Mix Bacon Ranch Layer
In a small bowl, combine:
-
Ranch dressing
-
Grated Parmesan cheese
-
Crumbled bacon
Mix well and set aside.
5. Layer the Lasagna
-
Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
-
Add a layer of cooked lasagna noodles.
-
Spread a layer of the meat sauce over the noodles.
-
Spoon the bacon ranch mixture over the meat layer.
-
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
-
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a generous layer of mozzarella cheese on top.
6. Bake
Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
7. Rest & Serve
