Lean Turkey Zucchini Lasagna
A light twist on traditional lasagna using lean ground turkey and thinly sliced zucchini in place of pasta. This dish offers a comforting blend of savory tomato sauce, herbed lean turkey, and melty low-fat cheeses for a delicious, nutrient-rich meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
1 small Onion
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips. Set aside on paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
Add lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, and drain any excess fat.
Stir in tomato sauce and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper, allowing the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine low-fat ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a baking dish, layer a thin spread of the turkey sauce, followed by a layer of zucchini slices, a smear of ricotta, and a sprinkle of mozzarella.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a topping of mozzarella cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil in the last 5 minutes of baking for a slightly golden top.
Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes before serving.
