INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
3/4 cup Tomato Sauce (No Salt Added)
4 ounces Zucchini (sliced thin as lasagna sheets)
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin sheets to use as a noodle substitute. Optionally, sprinkle lightly with salt to draw out extra moisture, then pat dry.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks.
In a small bowl, gently mix together the part-skim ricotta cheese and fresh spinach.
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce in the bottom of a small oven-safe baking dish. Layer with zucchini slices, turkey, a dollop of the ricotta-spinach mixture, and a little extra tomato sauce. Repeat layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of tomato sauce on top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 5-10 minutes until the top is bubbly and slightly golden.
Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before serving.
