Lasagna Party Ring

• 1 (16 ounce) package dry lasagna noodles
• 1 (16 ounce) package ground beef
• 1 onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 (28 ounce) jar marinara sauce
• 1 (7 ounce) container ricotta cheese, or to taste
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Italian cheese blend

1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat while the lasagna noodles are cooking. Add beef, onion, and garlic. Cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until flavors blend, 6 to 10 minutes.
3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8- to 10-cup fluted tube pan (such as Bundt(R)).
4. Cut lasagna noodles in half and line them in the prepared pan in overlapping layers resembling shingles. Spoon 1/3 of the beef sauce into pan.
5. Mix ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, basil, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Layer 1/2 of the ricotta mixture into the prepared pan. Add 1/2 the Italian cheese blend. Add the next 1/3 of beef sauce and remaining 1/2 of ricotta mixture. Finish with the last 1/3 of beef sauce. Fold over the overhanging noodles. Sprinkle the remaining Italian cheese blend on top.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), about 45 minutes. Cover with a tent of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 20 minutes. Flip over and cut into wedges using a serrated knife.
