How to Make Sheet Pan Lasagna

1. Boil the lasagna noodles in a large pot of water until al dente. Afterward, strain the noodles and transfer them into a large mixing bowl.
2. Combine the ground beef, sausage, onion, and garlic over medium heat in a large deep skillet.
3. Cook the meat, onion, and garlic until browned. Then drain off any excess fat and return the mixture to the pan.
4. Stir in the pasta sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Next, allow the meat sauce to simmer on the stovetop.
5. Mix the ricotta cheese, thawed and drained spinach, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Set this aside.
6. Prep and measure out the ingredients needed for this Sheet Pan Lasagna Recipe to allow the process to move quickly!
7. Pour the meat sauce over the prepared pasta in the large mixing bowl. Then, stir in the mozzarella cheese.
8. Transfer the lasagna mixture to a baking sheet that’s lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Spread the lasagna out evenly!
9. Top the sheet pan lasagna with dollops of the ricotta mixture, grated mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese. Then bake it in the oven until the cheese becomes golden brown and bubbly!

I will never make lasagna any other way!!

Can I make Giada Lasagna with Oven Ready Lasagna Noodles?

Can I make Sheet Pan Lasagna Giada ahead of time?

Yes, it is! To do so, prep the meal up to the baking instructions. Then cover the pan loosely and slide it into the fridge. Then when you’re ready for dinner, just pop it into the oven to bake!
