Lean Turkey Zucchini Lasagna
Enjoy a healthy twist on classic lasagna using lean turkey and layers of thin zucchini slices in place of pasta. This dish offers a satisfying combination of savory tomato sauce, melted part-skim cheeses, and aromatic herbs, making it a delicious and nutrient-packed option for any meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, Shredded
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or sharp knife, then lightly salt and set aside to draw out moisture.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the finely chopped onion and minced garlic until translucent.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, seasoning with salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs, and cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes.
In a small baking dish, begin layering: spread a thin layer of the turkey-tomato mixture, lay down a layer of zucchini slices, and add a dollop of ricotta cheese.
Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of the turkey mixture and topping with shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
