Irresistible Creamy Beef Lasagna Recipe in 4 Easy Steps

Creamy Beef Lasagna

Ultimate Creamy Beef Lasagna Stack. This is the creamiest cheesy lasagna ever—stacked sky-high with rich flavor and melty beefy goodness that’s pure dinner bliss!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 912 lasagna noodles, cooked
  • 2½ cups ricotta cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup béchamel sauce (or Alfredo sauce for extra creaminess)
  • ¾ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: In a skillet, sauté onions and garlic in olive oil. Add beef and cook until browned, then stir in tomato paste and marinara—this is your rich, meaty flavor base for that hearty dinner win.
  2. Creamy Ricotta Mix: In a bowl, mix ricotta, egg, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning—this creates the smoothest, dreamiest cheese layer every cozy night calls for.
  3. Start Layering: In a deep dish, spread a bit of béchamel, layer noodles, beef sauce, ricotta mix, mozzarella, and repeat—stacking it up for that loaded cheesy bite and next-level pasta perfection.
  4. Top Like a Pro: Finish with a thick spread of béchamel, a mountain of mozzarella, and a shower of parmesan—bake until golden and bubbling for that crispy cheese top and melt-in-your-mouth vibe.
  5. Bake and Rest: Bake uncovered at 375°F (190°C) for 40 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes to set up those dreamy layers—because patience = clean slice victory and maximum cheesy pull.

Notes

  • Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes after baking for cleaner slices.
  • Use Alfredo sauce instead of béchamel for extra creaminess.
  • Fresh parsley adds a nice garnish and fresh flavor.
