INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/8 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Thinly slice the zucchini lengthwise to create ribbons that will serve as lasagna layers.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté minced garlic in a little water or broth until fragrant. Add the ground turkey, season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano, and cook until browned and fully cooked. Stir in half of the tomato sauce and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Assemble the lasagna by layering zucchini slices in a lightly greased baking dish. Spread a thin layer of the turkey and tomato mixture over the zucchini, then dollop spoonfuls of low-fat ricotta cheese evenly over the layer.
Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of zucchini topped with the remaining tomato sauce. Sprinkle part-skim mozzarella cheese and fresh basil over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
