INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 large Egg Whites
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as the lasagna noodles. Lightly season the slices with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until browned and fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
Mix the egg whites with the low-fat ricotta cheese in a bowl until well combined.
In a small baking dish, layer a thin spread of marinara sauce, followed by a layer of zucchini strips. Then add a layer of cooked turkey, spoon on some ricotta mixture, and drizzle a little more marinara sauce.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of zucchini and a sprinkle of low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes before serving.
