Protein-Packed Turkey and Zucchini Lasagna
A lighter twist on classic lasagna featuring lean ground turkey layered with thinly sliced zucchini, a zesty tomato sauce, and a creamy ricotta and egg blend. This dish delivers a robust, savory flavor while keeping the calories and protein well-balanced.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 large Egg
1/8 cup chopped Onion
1 Garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon dried Basil & Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips. Lightly salt them and set aside to draw out excess moisture.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant and softened.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon.
Stir in the tomato sauce and dried herbs to the turkey mixture. Allow it to simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with the egg until smooth.
Layer the ingredients in a small baking dish: begin with a layer of zucchini slices, followed by a portion of the turkey sauce, then a dollop of the ricotta mixture. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a zucchini layer on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the zucchini is tender and the flavors meld together.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
