INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Thinly slice the zucchini lengthwise to create lasagna noodles. Lightly salt the slices and let them rest for 10 minutes to draw out moisture, then pat dry with a paper towel.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until aromatic, then add the lean ground turkey. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat ricotta with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Layer zucchini slices over the sauce, then add a layer of cooked ground turkey, dollop with ricotta mixture, and a sprinkle of part-skim mozzarella.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of zucchini topped with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the layers to set.
