Ingredients

• 1 pound Lean ground turkey (93% lean)
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 28 ounces Canned crushed tomatoes (no added sugar)
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 15 ounces Low-fat ricotta cheese
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1.5 cups Low-moisture part-skim shredded mozzarella cheese
• 9 sheets No-boil lasagna noodles (whole grain preferred)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 spray Olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil spray.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly spray with olive oil. Add ground turkey and cook until no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 5

While the sauce is simmering, prepare the ricotta mixture. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, grated Parmesan, and parsley. Stir until well mixed.

Step 6

To assemble the lasagna, spread 1/3 of the meat sauce evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Place 3 lasagna noodles on top.

Step 7

Spread half of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, followed by 1/3 of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat with another layer of meat sauce, noodles, ricotta mixture, and mozzarella cheese.

Step 8

Finish with the remaining meat sauce, 3 lasagna noodles, and the rest of the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.

Step 9

Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Let the lasagna cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your lighter, healthier lasagna!
