INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as the lasagna 'noodles'.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, then add the lean ground turkey.
Cook the turkey until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir in the marinara sauce and simmer for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a baking dish, lay a single layer of zucchini slices, then spread a thin layer of the turkey marinara mix over them.
Dollop small spoonfuls of low-fat ricotta and sprinkle low-fat mozzarella over the meat layer, adding a few pieces of fresh basil.
Repeat layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna to rest for a few minutes before serving to set the layers.
