INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce
1/8 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/4 small Onion
1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or sharp knife. Set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped garlic and onion, sautéing until translucent.
Add lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart until browned and cooked through. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
In a small baking dish, lay a thin layer of the turkey and tomato mixture. Then layer zucchini slices, a dollop of ricotta, and sprinkle some mozzarella. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of turkey mixture topped with mozzarella.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Allow the lasagna to rest for a few minutes before serving.
