INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 teaspoon Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Using a mandoline or vegetable peeler, slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips to serve as lasagna layers.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until fully browned. Season with garlic powder, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
Stir in the marinara sauce to the cooked turkey. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of the turkey marinara mixture on the bottom.
Layer with zucchini strips, then spoon dollops of ricotta cheese evenly over the zucchini. Sprinkle fresh spinach on top.
Repeat the layering process until all components are used. Finish with a final layer of turkey sauce and a sprinkle of low-fat mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then garnish with extra basil if desired before serving.
