How to Make Amazing Low Fat Turkey Lasagna Roll Ups

  1. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions. Rinse and separate, preferably placing them on wax paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  3. 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.
  4. Stir in tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  5. 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.
  6. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and line with aluminum foil, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  7. Spread half of the tomato sauce in the prepared baking dish.
  8. 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.
  9. Top with 1 tablespoon of tomato sauce.
  10. Fold each noodle in half, then roll it up tightly.
  11. Arrange the lasagna roll-ups in the baking dish, seam-side down. Pour the remaining tomato sauce over the roll-ups.
  12. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.
  13. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  14. 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.
