Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 small Zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
- 24 ounces Low-sodium marinara sauce
- 1.5 cups Non-fat ricotta cheese
- 1.5 cups Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large Egg white
- 9 pieces Whole wheat lasagna noodles
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 for pan Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Cook the whole wheat lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until browned, breaking it into crumbles with a spatula (about 5-7 minutes). Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the turkey and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion turns translucent.
Stir in the marinara sauce, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg white, and 0.5 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix well until creamy and smooth.
Spread a thin layer (about 0.5 cup) of the turkey marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
Place 3 lasagna noodles on top of the sauce, followed by a layer of zucchini slices. Spread one-third of the ricotta mixture over the zucchini, then one-third of the remaining marinara sauce, and sprinkle with a portion of mozzarella cheese.
Repeat this process two more times (noodles, zucchini, ricotta mixture, sauce, and cheese), ending with a final topping of remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil (sprayed with cooking spray to prevent sticking) and bake for 40 minutes.
Uncover the dish and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
Remove the lasagna from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 8 portions and serving. Enjoy!
