2 tsp oregano, divided
½ cup ricotta cheese

Using a 12-inch cast iron skillet, brown the ground meat over medium heat for about 15 minutes until cooked.
Drain excess fat and return to skillet.
Add onion to the skillet and sauté with meat for about 3-5 minutes until translucent.
Pour marinara sauce, ½ tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp oregano into the same skillet and simmer for at least 5 minutes.
