INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey (85g)
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese (62g)
1 large Egg (50g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (62g)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black 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, cook the ground turkey until browned, seasoning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Stir in the tomato sauce and fresh basil into the turkey and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and ricotta cheese until well combined.
Layer a baking dish with a single layer of zucchini slices, spread half of the turkey mixture over the zucchini, and then dollop and gently spread half of the ricotta mixture on top.
Repeat with another layer of zucchini, remaining turkey mixture, and ricotta mixture.
Cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the zucchini is tender and the flavors meld.
Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking for slight browning on top. Let stand briefly before serving.
