Ingredients
Scale
Meat & Protein
- 1 lb ground beef
- 6 strips crispy bacon, cooked and chopped
Cheeses
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Vegetables & Aromatics
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, diced
Others
- 9–12 lasagna noodles
- 2 cups tomato sauce
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Meat Mixture: Cook ground beef with diced onions and minced garlic over medium heat until browned and fragrant. Drain excess fat, stir in the chopped crispy bacon, and season with salt and pepper.
- Make the Creamy Parmesan Sauce: Warm heavy cream in a saucepan, then gradually whisk in grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is melted, smooth, and velvety.
- Cook the Lasagna Noodles: Boil the lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to prevent sticking.
- Assemble the Layers: In a baking dish, start with a spoonful of tomato sauce, then layer lasagna noodles, spread the meat mixture evenly, drizzle the Parmesan sauce, and sprinkle shredded mozzarella. Repeat layers until ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of mozzarella on top.
- Bake and Rest: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30-40 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow layers to set.
Notes
- Don’t overcook the noodles to avoid sogginess.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor and creaminess.
- Cook bacon until crispy for optimal texture.
- Allow lasagna to rest before slicing for cleaner portions.
- Spread ingredients evenly for balanced flavor in every bite.
