How to Make Amazing Low Fat Turkey Lasagna Roll Ups
- Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Rinse and separate, preferably placing them on wax paper to prevent sticking.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add carrot and cook for another 3 minutes.
- Stir in tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- While the sauce simmers, brown the ground turkey in a separate skillet over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease. Stir in beef broth to keep the turkey moist.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and line with aluminum foil, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- Spread half of the tomato sauce in the prepared baking dish.
- Spread about 1 tablespoon of ricotta cheese on each lasagna noodle. Top with 1 tablespoon of mozzarella cheese and 2-3 tablespoons of cooked turkey.
- Top with 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce.
- Fold each noodle in half, then roll it up tightly.
- Arrange the lasagna roll-ups in the baking dish, seam-side down. Pour the remaining tomato sauce over the roll-ups.
- Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the roll-ups are heated through.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
