INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini (for noodles)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 small Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Finely chop the onion and garlic, then sauté them in the skillet until they soften and become translucent.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until it is no longer pink.
Stir in the tomato sauce along with chopped fresh basil, and let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to blend the flavors.
Meanwhile, using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini.
In a small baking dish or oven-safe skillet, layer half of the zucchini noodles, then spread the turkey sauce over the zucchini.
Dollop and gently spread the part-skim ricotta cheese over the turkey layer, and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top.
Repeat layering with the remaining zucchini noodles and turkey mixture if desired, or serve as an open-faced lasagna.
Optional: Place the assembled dish in a preheated oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes to meld flavors and slightly soften the zucchini noodles.
Serve warm and garnish with extra basil if desired.
