Ingredients

  • 1  pound  extra lean ground turkey breast
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/2  cups  water
  • 1  (26-ounce) bottle fat-free Italian pasta sauce (such as Healthy Choice)
  • 3  cups  (12 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 2  cups  1% low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2  cup  (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2  cup  egg substitute
  • 1/4  cup  chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4  teaspoon  black pepper
  • 9  uncooked lasagna noodles

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°.
Cook the turkey in a large saucepan coated with cooking spray over medium heat until browned, stirring to crumble. Add water and pasta sauce; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
Combine 2 cups mozzarella, cottage cheese, and next 4 ingredients (cottage cheese through pepper) in a bowl.
Spread 1 cup turkey mixture in bottom of a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. Arrange 3 noodles over turkey mixture; top with 1 1/2 cups turkey mixture. Spread half of cheese mixture over turkey mixture. Repeat layers, ending with the remaining turkey mixture.
Cover and bake at 350° for 1 hour. Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzarella cheese, and bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Let lasagna stand 10 minutes before serving.

  1. This meal is fanfrickintabulous. The idea of using cottage cheese has always turned me off, but it is all good and the left overs are wonderful. Eat it with a big salad to curb your desire for seconds!!
