INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 medium Zucchini
1 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as your lasagna layers.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces.
Stir in the tomato sauce and fresh basil, and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
In a small bowl, gently mix the low-fat ricotta cheese with a little of the turkey-tomato sauce to loosen it up.
Layer the dish by spreading a thin layer of the turkey sauce in a baking dish, then place a layer of zucchini slices, followed by a layer of ricotta mixture. Repeat the layers and top with the remaining turkey sauce and a drizzle of Parmesan cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the top is slightly golden.
Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes before serving.
