Zucchini Lasagna is a delicious, low-carb alternative to traditional lasagna. Instead of pasta, this recipe uses sliced zucchini as the base, offering a lighter yet satisfying meal. Ground turkey provides a hearty texture while ricotta and mozzarella cheeses add creamy richness. Herbs and spices give this dish an authentic Italian flavor.
- Use a mandoline slicer to get uniform zucchini slices, which helps in even cooking.
- To avoid excess water, sprinkle zucchini slices with salt and let them sit for about 10 minutes; pat them dry before using.
- Feel free to add more vegetables like mushrooms or spinach for added nutrition and flavor.
- Make sure to drain the ground turkey well after cooking to prevent the lasagna from becoming too watery.
- Let the lasagna rest for about 10-15 minutes after baking to allow it to set before slicing.
Zucchini Lasagna is a nutritious and flavorful dish perfect for those looking to reduce their carbohydrate intake without compromising on taste. The combination of zucchini, ground turkey, and cheeses makes for a hearty, satisfying meal that's sure to become a favorite.
