Irresistible Cheese Lasagna: An Easy Vegetarian Delight

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
• 4 cups ricotta cheese
• 4 eggs eggs
• 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 (32 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Gather all ingredients for the cheese lasagna recipe.
2. Boil a large pot of lightly salted water. Add lasagna noodles and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and lay noodles flat on foil to cool slightly.
3. In a bowl, thoroughly mix the ricotta, eggs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until well combined.
4. In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in spaghetti sauce and Italian seasoning, warming through for 2 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. Spread 1/2 cup of sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover with a layer of noodles. Spread 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over noodles; top with another layer of noodles. Pour 1 1/2 cups of sauce over noodles and spread the remaining ricotta over the sauce evenly.
6. Top with the remaining noodles and sauce; sprinkle generously with the remaining mozzarella. Cover the baking dish with a greased sheet of foil.
7. Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown, approximately 45 minutes.
