Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets lasagna noodles
- 2 cups ricotta cheese
- 3 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1.5 cups parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 pieces large egg
- 4 cups marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay cooked noodles flat on a baking sheet brushed with olive oil to prevent sticking.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup of the shredded mozzarella, 1 cup of grated parmesan, crumbled feta, eggs, garlic powder, dried basil, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and set aside.
Spread 1 cup of marinara sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Lay 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce. Spread 1/3 of the cheese mixture evenly over the noodles. Pour another 1 cup of marinara sauce over the cheese layer.
Repeat the layering process (noodles, cheese mixture, marinara) two more times, finishing with a layer of noodles on top.
Spread the remaining 1 cup of marinara sauce over the top layer of noodles. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 2 cups of shredded mozzarella and 1/2 cup parmesan cheese.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the cheese on top is bubbling and golden brown.
Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, if desired, and enjoy!
