Ingredients:
1 pound ground turkey (you could use ground chicken or lean ground beef)
1/2 onion chopped
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
2 (16 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/4 cups small-curd low fat cottage cheese (drain excess liquid)
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
6-8 whole grain lasagna noodles
3/4 cup shredded low fat mozzarella cheese
Directions:
1) In a skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic until meat is no longer pink; drain.
2) Begin boiling lasagna noodles in large pot. Follow directions on packaging.
3) Add cans of crushed tomatoes, salt, and seasonings to taste. After combining, reduce the temperature to low and let simmer for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
4) After sauce has simmered, spread half of the meat sauce into a lightly greased 8x8 dish.
5) Preheat oven at 375 degrees.
6) Take the spinach and microwave it for 15-30 seconds, or until wilted. In large bowl, combine spinach, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, and onion powder until incorporated.
7) Take a lasagna noodle, spread 1/4 cupful on each noodle, and then very carefully roll-up the noodle. Place lasagna roll seam side down on top of the meat sauce in the dish.
8) Once all of the lasagna rolls have been placed in the dish, top with remaining meat sauce, and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
9) Cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 more minutes.
