1 lb lean ground beef a protein-packed base that keeps this lasagna hearty and satisfying.
6 strips crispy bacon adds a smoky flavor that elevates your lasagna to gourmet status.

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese brings a nutty aroma and richness that complements the dish beautifully.
15 oz ricotta cheese creates a creamy texture to balance the savory meat and salty bacon.
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese melts wonderfully, adding that gooey, cheesy stretch we all love.

9 no-boil lasagna noodles saves you time and makes layering a breeze, perfect for weeknight cooking.
3 cloves garlic, minced infuses the dish with a delightful flavor that enhances every bite.
2 cups marinara sauce ties all the elements together and adds a rich, tangy note to this comforting dish.

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until they become crispy and golden brown. Remove the bacon, allowing it to cool, then crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, brown the ground beef until it is fully cooked and no longer pink. Stir occasionally, ensuring it cooks evenly.
Add the minced garlic to the beef and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the marinara sauce, stirring well to combine. Let it simmer for a couple of minutes to meld the flavors together.
In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with half of the Parmesan cheese. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a baking dish, start layering: first, spread a layer of the beef mixture, followed by three noodles, then half of the ricotta mixture, followed by a sprinkle of crumbled bacon and a handful of mozzarella. Repeat these layers, finishing with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes.

Allow the lasagna to rest for about 10-15 minutes after baking to help it set, making for cleaner slices when serving.

Optional: Garnish with fresh basil or parsley for a burst of color and flavor!
