INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/8 cup Shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or a sharp knife.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground turkey along with minced garlic. Cook until the turkey is browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in tomato sauce, dried oregano, and half of the chopped fresh basil. Season with salt and pepper, and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese with the remaining basil. Mix gently.
In a baking dish, layer a few zucchini strips on the bottom. Spread half of the turkey-tomato sauce mixture over the zucchini, then dollop and spread a layer of the ricotta cheese. Repeat the layering process with the remaining zucchini, turkey sauce, and ricotta.
Finish by sprinkling the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before serving.
