INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 medium Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Dried Basil
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips using a mandoline or a sharp knife. Set aside.
In a nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped half onion and minced garlic until soft and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, dried basil, and oregano. Cook until browned and fully cooked.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
In a small baking dish, layer a few zucchini strips on the bottom to form the base. Spoon a portion of the turkey and tomato sauce mixture over the zucchini, then add dollops of low-fat ricotta. Repeat with additional layers, finishing with a layer of zucchini on top.
Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the final layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the zucchini is tender.
Allow the lasagna to rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
