Roasted Vegetable Lasagna

Roasted Vegetable Lasagna

This is my new FAVORITE way to have lasagna.  It is healthy–full of vegetables and so tasty.

SERVING–8

  • Cook 10 oz of ground turkey and set aside

Roasted Veggies:
Mix together:

  • 1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp crushed garlic
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper

Add to the EVOO mixture:

  • 8 cups of cut up vegetables– (mostly peppers and mushrooms, sometimes I use zuchinni):

Additional Ingredients:

  • 13 oz of 1% cottage cheese
  • 6 Cups of mozzarella cheese — (As long as the cheese has 3 to 6 grams of fat per ounce then it is compliant. Nutrition Support looked at several brands of 2 % mozzarella cheese and the fat content ranges from 2.5 (a little under is fine) to 6 grams per ounce so it does fit the guidelines.)

 

Roasted Veggies:

Red, Yellow, Orange and Green Peppers sliced
Zucchini sliced length wise
grape tomatoes cut in half

Toss in the olive oil and garlic and put on a jelly roll pan and roast at 450 degrees for about 30 minutes until they begin to brown.

TO make the lasagna:

  • Take the veggies and lay in a 9x 13 pan
  • Top with the 1% cottage cheese–
  • Top with the cooked ground turkey
  • Top with mozzarella cheese

and bake at 350 for 20 minutes until cheese melts.

 

Per serving this recipe is 1 Leanest protein, 2 vegetables and ½ of a fat serving.
