INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/2 medium Onion
2 cloves Garlic
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
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.
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until softened and fragrant.
Add the ground turkey to the pan. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through.
Stir in the marinara sauce and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In an oven-safe dish, layer zucchini slices, turkey mixture, dollops of ricotta cheese, and sprinkle mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers as desired, finishing with a layer of turkey sauce and mozzarella on top.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before serving.
