INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 Medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 cloves Garlic
1 Small Onion
1 tsp Dried Basil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small baking dish.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to act as your lasagna noodles. Set aside.
Finely dice the small onion and mince the garlic.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until no longer pink. Add the diced onion and garlic, and cook until softened.
Stir in the tomato sauce and dried basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to combine flavors.
Layer a few zucchini slices at the bottom of the dish, followed by a layer of the turkey sauce, then dollops of low-fat ricotta. Repeat layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of zucchini on top.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the dish is heated through and the top is slightly golden.
Allow to cool slightly before serving to let the layers set.
