Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).

- In a small bowl, combine ricotta, parmesan, basil, and egg. Mix together with a fork, set aside.
- Remove the peppers from the oven, drain any excess water that accumulated inside.
- Cut the lasagna noodles into quarters and set aside.
- Assemble the lasagna in each pepper. Alternate 2 tablespoons of sauce, 1 lasagna noodle, 2 tablespoons ricotta mixture, and 1 lasagna noodle until the peppers are full. Top with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and slightly browned.
- Rest for 10 minutes before serving.
