INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1/4 cup Part-skim Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Low-fat Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Onion (chopped)
2 cloves Garlic
1 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 to serve as lasagna layers. Lightly salt them and set aside for a few minutes to draw out moisture, then pat dry with paper towels.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onions and garlic until translucent and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up as it cooks until browned. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
In a baking dish, layer a portion of the turkey mixture, followed by a layer of zucchini slices. Dot with spoonfuls of ricotta cheese and sprinkle a layer of low-fat mozzarella.
Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a cheese layer on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the lasagna bake to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your hearty and nutritious meal!
