1

Cook meat in 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat, breaking it into pieces with a wooden spoon, until fat renders, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain meat and return it to skillet.

2

Stir in garlic, pepper flakes and ½ tsp. salt and cook over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Sprinkle broken noodles into skillet, then pour in marinara and water over top. Cover and cook, stirring often and adjusting heat as needed to maintain vigorous simmer, until noodles are tender, about 20 minutes.

4

Off heat, stir in half of mozzarella and half of Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Dot heaping Tablespoons of ricotta over noodles, then sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and let stand off heat until cheeses melt, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with basil before serving.

 Cooking Tips

*If you can find an already mixed meatloaf at the store, that's what you need. If not, use 1/2 lb. 85% lean ground beef and 1/2 lb. ground pork.

**Do not use the no-boil lasagna noodles for this recipe.

***To save time, while meat is cooking...mince garlic- place in a little bowl with red pepper and salt. Measure out pasta.
