Toppings
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
In a cast iron skillet or oven safe pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and onions and cook for a few minutes. Add the ground beef and break into small pieces and cook through until no longer pink.
Add the jar of sauce, seasonings, and chopped parsley to the meat sauce. Mix together well to combine.
Add the ricotta cheese to the meat sauce and stir to combine and melt.
After the noodles have cooked, drain them and add to the beef sauce. Using a fork mix the noodles into the sauce to even cover the pan. Top with mozzarella cheese.
Transfer the dish to the oven and bake for 10 minutes until the cheese has fully melted and the tops of the noodles begin to brown.
