Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix ricotta, Parmesan, egg, and 1 cup mozzarella in a bowl and set aside.
Boil pasta for 2 minutes less than al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet, cook ground beef and onion until browned. Add garlic, spices, and marinara sauce. Simmer briefly.
Combine pasta with most of the sauce. Transfer to a greased baking dish. Add dollops of ricotta mixture and remaining sauce.
Cover and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover, top with remaining mozzarella, and bake until bubbly, about 15 minutes more.
