1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup, chopped Onions, raw
3 cloves Garlic
.5 tsp Pepper, red or cayenne
8 oz Pasta, Lasagna Noodles
.5 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated

Tips
Adapt spices and salt and pepper to your taste and dietary needs. I buy the low-sodium canned tomato products. The original recipe called for meatloaf mix. But I do not eat beef, so substituted ground turkey and added lots of Italian seasonings for flavor.
Directions
1. Pour tomatoes (28oz can) with their juices into 1 quart liquid measuring cup. Add water until mixture measures 1 quart.
2. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add finely chopped onion, 1/2 tsp salt and cook until onion begins to brown. Stir in minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook until fragrant, about 30 sec. Add ground meat and 1-2 Tbsp Italian seasoning. Cook, breaking apart meat, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
2. Brake lasagna noodles into 2" pieces. Scatter over meat. Do NOT stir! Pour diced tomatoes with juices and tomato sauce over pasta. Cover and bring to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until pasta is tender, about 20 minutes.
4. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Dot with heaping tablespoons ricotta, cover. Let stand off heat for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil and 2 Tbsp Parmesan.
