Lasagna Recipe with Cottage Cheese

Step 1

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, minced garlic and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the ground turkey and break it apart with a spatula, a fork, or tongs. Season the meat with salt and pepper and let cook for about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add to the skillet tomato sauce, diced tomato, white wine and all the seasonings. Cook on medium heat until the turkey is ready and no more pink. If necessary, adjust with salt, pepper and seasonings, then set aside for later.

Step 4

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish with cooking spray or oil.

Step 5

Spread a thin layer of bolognese sauce and a bit of cottage cheese on the bottom of the baking dish. Add a layer of lasagna noodles, then cover with more bolognese sauce, cottage cheese, and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella. Continue layering with noodles, sauces, and cheese until most of the ingredients are used up. Reserve some for topping.

Step 6

Top with a final layer of sauce, cottage cheese, mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with olive oil.

Step 7

Bake in hot oven for 30 - 40 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and golden. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
