Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 2 cups Pasta shells
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 12 oz pasta sauce
  • Sprig of fresh basil leaves
  • Pinch of salt and black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Add the chopped onions and cook for another 3 minutes. Break the meat into crumbles and season with salt and pepper.
  • According to the package instructions, cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water. Drain and set aside. Combine the cooked pasta, ricotta cheese, egg, parsley, and 1 cup mozzarella cheese in a bowl.
  • Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and top with the cooked beef. Top with the pasta sauce.
  • Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45-50 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella cheese and bake uncovered until the cheese is melted, about 5-10 minutes. Remove the lasagna casserole from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
