INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 Egg White
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to create lasagna layers. Optionally, lightly salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture, then pat dry.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey seasoned with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
Combine the egg white and part-skim ricotta cheese in a bowl. Mix well to create a creamy binding mixture.
In a baking dish, arrange a layer of zucchini slices as the base.
Layer a portion of the cooked turkey over the zucchini, followed by dollops of the ricotta mixture, and drizzle with tomato sauce. Repeat layers as desired, finishing with a top layer of zucchini.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the final layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the dish is bubbly and the top has slightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
