A delicious and healthy twist on traditional lasagna by replacing pasta with zucchini.
2 large zucchinis | |
1 pound ground turkey | |
1 cup diced onion | |
1 cup diced bell peppers | |
2 cloves garlic, minced | |
1 can crushed tomatoes | |
1 teaspoon dried basil | |
1 teaspoon dried oregano | |
1/2 teaspoon salt | |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper | |
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese | |
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese | |
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, for garnish |
1. | Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). |
2. | Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips, about ¼ inch thick. |
3. | In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey over medium heat until browned. Add the diced onion, bell peppers, and garlic. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender. |
4. | Stir in the crushed tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes. |
5. | In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of the turkey sauce. Layer zucchini slices on top, followed by another layer of the sauce. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, ending with a layer of sauce on top. |
6. | Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. |
7. | Remove the foil and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. |
8. | Let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh basil. |
9. | Enjoy! |
