Assemble the Lasagna
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread a thin layer of meat sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Layer 4 lasagna sheets over the sauce, followed by a third of the ricotta mixture, a third of the meat sauce, and a third of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers twice more, ending with meat sauce and remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.

Bake the Lasagna
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbling. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
