- Preheat & Prepare Ingredients
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions, then set them aside. - Cook the Meat Mixture
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, bacon, onion, and garlic together until the beef is browned and the onion is soft. Drain any excess fat. - Simmer the Sauce
Stir in the marinara sauce, beef broth, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend together. - Assemble the Lasagna
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, start layering:- Spread a thin layer of the meat sauce at the bottom.
- Place 3 lasagna noodles on top.
- Add a third of the meat mixture and sprinkle with a third of each cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan).
- Repeat this process for two more layers, ending with cheese on top.
- Bake the Lasagna
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Cool & Serve
Let the lasagna rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. This helps the layers hold together. Serve warm and enjoy!
