INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Low Sodium Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, Shredded
1/4 cup Onion, chopped
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or a sharp knife.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Stir the low sodium tomato sauce into the turkey mixture and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
In an oven-safe dish, layer the zucchini strips at the bottom as you would with pasta, then spread a thin layer of the turkey sauce mixture. Dot with spoonfuls of low-fat ricotta cheese and sprinkle a little shredded mozzarella.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a top layer of zucchini and a final sprinkle of mozzarella and fresh basil.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the top is slightly golden.
Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before serving.
