INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 cup Zucchini, sliced
1/4 cup Shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella
1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
Italian Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder, Dried Basil)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, sauté the lean ground turkey with a pinch of Italian seasonings until it is fully cooked and starting to brown. Drain any excess liquid if necessary.
While the turkey cooks, lightly sauté the zucchini slices and spinach for 2-3 minutes until just tender, then set aside.
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Layer the cooked turkey, followed by dollops of ricotta evenly across the dish.
Arrange the zucchini slices and spinach over the ricotta, then drizzle the remaining marinara sauce on top.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Let stand for a few minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
