Make the Cheese “Noodles”
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix together shredded mozzarella, cream cheese, eggs, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning.
Spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, until firm.
Let cool slightly, then slice into lasagna-sized strips.
Cook the Meat Sauce
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef or turkey. Drain any excess grease.
Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir well.
Pour in marinara sauce and let simmer for 5 minutes.
Prepare the Ricotta Mixture
In a bowl, mix ricotta, egg, Parmesan, garlic powder, and basil until smooth.
Assemble the Lasagna
In a 9x9-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce.
Add a layer of cheese “noodles,” then spread half the ricotta mixture on top.
Add half the remaining meat sauce, then sprinkle with mozzarella.
Repeat layers, finishing with mozzarella and Parmesan on top.
Bake the Lasagna
Cover with foil and bake at 375°F for 20 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 10 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden.
Let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
