Recipe Ingredients
No Boil Pasta Sheets: You will need 22.5 sheets of no boil pasta for this recipe. That will give you three layers of pasta in this dish. This equates to two boxes of the no boil pasta. However, if you only have one box, don’t worry. You can easily make this recipe with two layers of pasta sheets as well.
Ricotta Mixture: You’ll combine drained whole milk ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated parmesan, dried oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, kosher salt, black pepper and one large egg in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
Sauce: For this recipe you’ll need two, 25.25 ounce jars of Delallo Foods pomodoro marinara sauce. This sauce provides the best flavor and work perfectly with the no boil pasta sheets.
How to Make Lazy Girl Lasagna
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Combine the drained ricotta cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, kosher salt, black pepper, parmesan cheese and 2.5 cups of mozzarella cheese in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
Grab a sheet pan with a raised edge and spray it with olive oil cooking spray. Add one cup of sauce to the bottom of the pan.
Next, add 7.5 sheets of the no boil pasta. Top the pasta with half of the ricotta mixture. Spread it out. Follow with a layer of sauce. Repeat until you have three layers of pasta sheets. The top layer should be no boil pasta sheets covered in sauce. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella over the top.
Bake covered for 25-30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes so the cheese can melt. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Storage
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three to four days. Reheat leftovers in the microwave.

Excellent recipe!! The only thing I did differently was I held the no bake noodles while applying the ricotta mixture. Assembly was really quick!
This was the perfect dish to take to a last minute family get together. I already had everything except for the ricotta. I think next time I will add a little sausage or beef to my sauce. Definitely a keeper recipe!
I saw this on Instagram and couldn’t wait to try it. We had it last night and everyone really enjoyed it. My little ones even ate seconds, which says a lot! I recommend putting an extra tray on the rack beneath to catch any drips. I followed the recipe exactly. The sauces were perfect.
