Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
 - 1 pound ground beef
 - 1 medium onion, chopped
 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
 - 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
 - 4 cups beef broth
 - 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
 - 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
 - 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
 - Salt and pepper, to taste
 
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned, about 6-8 minutes.
 - Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 3 minutes until softened.
 - Stir in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes.
 - Break the lasagna noodles into pieces and add them to the pot. Continue to simmer for 10-12 minutes, until the noodles are cooked through.
 - Stir in the ricotta, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses until melted and combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
 - Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
 
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add crushed red pepper flakes when adding the tomatoes and broth.
 - Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a lighter option.
 - Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
