In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces with a spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Season the beef mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir in the marinara sauce, then reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes.
In a separate pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the broken lasagna noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked lasagna noodles evenly among 4 serving bowls.
Top each bowl with an even scoop of the beef and marinara sauce mixture.
Dollop a generous spoonful of the ricotta mixture onto each bowl, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Microwave each bowl for 1-2 minutes or transfer to an oven-safe dish and broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheeses are melted and bubbly.
Garnish with extra parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
