INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
0.5 cup Tomato Sauce
0.5 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
0.25 medium Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
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 about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture, then pat dry.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Break it apart as it cooks, and season with Italian seasoning. Cook until the turkey is fully browned.
Stir in the tomato sauce with the cooked turkey and let simmer for 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
Layer a baking dish with slices of zucchini at the bottom. Spread half of the turkey and tomato mixture over the zucchini, then dollop with half of the low-fat cottage cheese.
Repeat layering with another layer of zucchini, the remaining turkey mixture, and top with the remaining cottage cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the top is slightly golden.
Allow the lasagna to cool for a few minutes before serving to let it set.
