Lean Ground Turkey
Pam Spray
15 oz. Low Fat Ricotta Cheese
2 Tablespoons reduced fat parmesan cheese
1 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning blend

8 uncooked whole grain lasagna noodles
8 oz. fat free mozzarella

Brown ground turkey in a pan using Pam, then mix with all but one cup of your spaghetti sauce. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put the ricotta, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning in a bowl and stir. Spoon your one cup of plain spaghetti sauce over the bottom of a baking dish. Top with 4 lasagna noodles, then top noodles with 1 cup of the ricotta mixture. On top of this, sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella. Now layer on a cup of your spaghetti sauce/browned turkey mixture. Add 4 more lasagna noodles, the rest of the ricotta mixture, and the last of the spaghetti sauce/browned turkey. Finish up with a final layer of mozzarella. Make sure all the noodles are covered with sauce or cheese. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, let cool for 10 minutes.
