INGREDIENTS
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper (119g)
1 cup sliced Mushrooms (70g)
1/2 medium Eggplant (120g)
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey (85g each oz approx)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (62g)
1/4 cup shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (123g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as lasagna noodles. Set aside.
Chop the red bell pepper, mushrooms, and eggplant into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and your favorite Italian herbs.
Spread the chopped vegetables on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, cook the lean ground turkey in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of Italian seasoning.
In a small saucepan, warm up the tomato sauce with a dash of herbs, then combine it with the cooked ground turkey.
In a baking dish, start assembling the lasagna by layering zucchini slices, a portion of the turkey-tomato sauce, a dollop of low-fat ricotta, a scattering of roasted vegetables, and a sprinkle of mozzarella. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a cheese layer on top.
Bake in the oven at 400°F for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna to cool slightly before serving to help it set.
