Tips:

  • Use ground turkey: This recipe uses ground turkey as the protein, which is a lean and healthy alternative to ground beef. You can also use ground chicken or beef if you prefer.
  • Make your own enchilada sauce: The recipe includes a simple recipe for enchilada sauce, but you can also use your favorite store-bought enchilada sauce.
  • Layer the lasagna carefully: When assembling the lasagna, be sure to layer the ingredients evenly and press down firmly to avoid air pockets.
  • Cook on low heat: The lasagna should be cooked on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the turkey is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving: Once the lasagna is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will help the lasagna to set and make it easier to slice.
