Lasagna with Turkey Sausage

January 23, 2014

Oh friends, it's a doozy today. I don't know about you but oftentimes when I eat lasagna I am disappointed at the lack of flavor. Problem solved here! Instead of the traditional ground beef this recipe uses turkey sausage combined with a homemade marinara sauce and enough cheese to send it into the next orbit! Plus, I use no boil lasagna noodles! You will want to make this again and again. That may not be a great idea for your waistline but you get the idea. Feel free to substit

2 T. extra virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/4 lb. turkey sausage, casings removed
1 (28 oz.) can crushed tomatoes
1 (6 oz.) can tomato paste
1/4 c. fresh parsley, minced
1/2 c. fresh basil, chopped
Salt and pepper
15 oz. part skim ricotta cheese
4 oz. creamy goat cheese (I used herbed)
1 1/4 c. shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 lb. no boil lasagna noodles
2 c. (8 oz.) part skim shredded mozzarella cheese

Preheat the oven to 400. Spray a 9X13 pan with cooking spray and set aside. In a large saute pan heat the olive oil over medium high heat and add the onion. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the onion...
