Lightened Lean Beef and Spinach Lasagne
A delightful light twist on classic lasagne, featuring lean beef, fresh spinach, and a blend of low-fat cheeses layered between tender whole wheat noodles. This dish offers vibrant flavors with a healthy yet comforting profile, perfect for a balanced dinner.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Beef (85% lean)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Lasagne Noodles (cooked)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (no sugar added)
1/4 medium Onion, diced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/2 tsp Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and dried basil.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let the mixture simmer for another 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Mix the fresh spinach into the beef sauce; if the spinach is too bulky, let it wilt in the warm sauce.
In a small glass baking dish, layer half of the cooked whole wheat lasagne noodles, then spread the beef and spinach mixture evenly. Dollop the low-fat ricotta cheese over the mixture.
If desired, repeat layers for a thicker lasagne, ensuring even distribution of each ingredient.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the flavors meld and the dish is heated through.
Allow the lasagne to rest for a few minutes before serving.
