Instructions
 

  • Start by chopping and preparing all of the vegetables: onions, garlic, zucchini, and squash.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat and add some olive oil or avocado oil. Add the chopped onions and garlic to the pan and sauté until fragrant.
  • Add the ground turkey to the pan and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
  • While the turkey is cooking, add the cottage cheese, oregano, garlic powder, basil, and Parmesan cheese to a blender. Blend until smooth to create the cottage cheese mixture.
  • Once the turkey is fully cooked, add the chopped zucchini, squash, and tomato sauce to the pan. Let everything simmer together for a few minutes until the vegetables are softened.
  • In a large casserole dish, start layering the lasagna:
  • First, add a layer of the meat and vegetable sauce.
  • Then, add a layer of the lasagna noodles.
  • Follow with a layer of the cottage cheese mixture.
  • Repeat these layers 3 to 4 times.
  • Top the final layer with the mozzarella cheese.
  • Place the casserole dish in the oven and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and golden brown.
  • Let the lasagna cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
