Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the lasagna noodles and 1 tbsp olive oil and cook until just shy of al dente — tender but with a firm bite at the center, about 8 minutes. Drain, lay flat on a lightly oiled sheet pan, and set aside.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no pink remains, about 7–8 minutes. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tbsp in the pan.
