INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey (113g)
1 medium Zucchini (196g)
0.5 cup No-Sugar-Added Tomato Sauce (125g)
0.25 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (62g)
1 oz Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or knife. Sprinkle lightly with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to remove extra moisture, then pat dry.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then add the lean ground turkey. Cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon.
Stir in the tomato sauce and add chopped basil, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and set aside.
To assemble, layer the bottom of a small baking dish with a few zucchini slices. Spread a thin layer of the turkey-tomato mixture, dollop some ricotta, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
