  3. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer 4 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by another layer of marinara sauce and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers, finishing with remaining noodles, marinara sauce, and remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
