Protein-Packed Turkey and Zucchini Lasagna
Enjoy this light yet satisfying lasagna that replaces traditional pasta layers with tender zucchini slices. Lean ground turkey, a rich tomato sauce lightly infused with garlic and onion, and a sprinkle of part-skim mozzarella come together in a delicious, protein-packed dish perfect for a healthy, balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (Low Sodium)
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/4 medium Onion
Fresh Basil (3 sprigs)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as the lasagna layers.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and sauté until soft and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in the tomato sauce, and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste if desired.
In a small baking dish, layer a few zucchini slices at the bottom. Spoon half of the turkey and tomato mixture over the zucchini, then add a light sprinkle of part-skim mozzarella cheese.
Repeat the layering with the remaining zucchini slices, turkey mixture, and finish with the rest of the mozzarella cheese.
Bake the assembled dish in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
