Cook the lasagna noodles in boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add ground beef to the skillet, cooking until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in tomato sauce, basil, oregano, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper; simmer for 15 minutes.

In a bowl, mix ricotta cheese, egg, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until smooth.

Spread a layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a baking dish.

Layer noodles over the sauce, followed by a layer of the ricotta mixture, then mozzarella cheese.

Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of meat sauce and mozzarella on top.

Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

Let the lasagna rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
