Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

9 whole-wheat lasagna noodles
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ cup chopped onion
1 pound ground turkey breast
3 cups tomato sauce
½ cup sliced fresh mushrooms
3 tablespoons Italian seasoning
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
6 cups chopped fresh spinach
2 cups fat-free ricotta cheese
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 2 minutes. Add ground turkey and cook 5 to 7 minutes more, stirring to break up any large chunks of meat. Stir in tomato sauce, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and garlic powder. Simmer for 2 minutes and season to taste.
  • Combine spinach, ricotta, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
  • To assemble, arrange 3 noodles lengthwise in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread with 1/3 the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the turkey mixture, and 1/3 of the mozzarella. Repeat layers, ending with remaining mozzarella. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

This lasagna was too bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.
