Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 lb ground turkey
  • 1 package lasagna noodles
  • 1 small onion
  • 1-2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 red pepper (diced)
  • 1/2 yellow squash (diced)
  • 24 oz pasta sauce
  • 12 oz cottage cheese
  • 1 1/2 cup 1 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 TBS parsley
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)

Instructions
 

THE MEAT

  • Saute turkey on stove top with onion and garlic and seasonings of your choice (I like to use salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, oregano, and crushed red pepper). Transfer to bowl (unless your saute pan is big enough) to add pasta sauce.. . . .

THE RICOTTA

  • In another bowl, mash the cottage cheese until creamed (a potato masher works great for this). In that same bowl, stir in the parmesan, parsley, and oregano.

NOODLES & CHEESE

  • Follow noodle cooking instructions (if making gluten-free noodles from scratch, do step three first). Grate cheese.
  • You will now have four separate groups. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a 13x9 inch glass pan begin by spreading half of the meat sauce. Layer next with lasagna noodles, then half the 'ricotta' mixture, half the mozzarella cheese, and another layer of lasagna noodles. Start the layering process again, ending with the mozzarella cheese on top. Cover pan with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for about 40 minutes. Uncover to bake for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from oven, garnish with parsley, and let stand 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
