Ingredients
Scale
- 12 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente
- 1 lb ground beef
- 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Brown ground beef in a skillet, drain the fat, and add minced garlic, cooking for another minute.
- Stir the marinara sauce into the beef mixture and simmer for 5 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix ranch dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and crumbled bacon.
- Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Layer the cooked lasagna noodles slightly overlapping on top.
