High-Protein Turkey and Cottage Cheese Lasagna
A lean and delicious lasagna twist that swaps traditional noodles for thinly sliced zucchini, layered with seasoned ground turkey, creamy nonfat cottage cheese, and bright tomato sauce. This dish delivers a satisfying savory meal with a boost of protein and fresh spinach, perfect for a healthy dinner option.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Nonfat Cottage Cheese
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Tomato Sauce
1 cup Cooked Spinach
1 whole Zucchini
1 Egg White
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to mimic lasagna noodles. Lightly salt and let them drain on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until no longer pink. Season lightly with salt and pepper as desired.
In a separate pan, warm the tomato sauce and stir in the egg white until fully incorporated, then remove from heat.
Layer the ingredients in a small baking dish: start with a thin layer of turkey, add a layer of zucchini slices, then spread a layer of nonfat cottage cheese, followed by cooked spinach, and drizzle some tomato sauce mixture. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a drizzle of tomato sauce on top.
Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the top to set slightly.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.
