Protein-Packed Turkey Zucchini Lasagna

INGREDIENTS
3 oz Extra Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin ribbons to serve as lasagna noodles. If using a mandoline, be careful to keep slices even.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Mix the egg white into the part-skim ricotta cheese in a small bowl to lighten the cheese filling.
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce at the bottom of a small, oven-safe baking dish.
Layer zucchini slices over the sauce, then evenly spread a portion of the turkey mixture, followed by dollops of the ricotta mixture.
Repeat layering with remaining zucchini, turkey, and ricotta mixtures, finishing with a top layer of zucchini covered with remaining tomato sauce.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until heated through and the top is slightly golden.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
