Instructions

  1. Once the lasagna noodles are cooked, drain the water and reserve 1/2 cup pasta water. Return the noodles back to the pot and pour the reserve water inside the pot. Set aside.
  2. In a large saute pan on medium-high heat, begin to cook the ground turkey and ground turkey sausage, 7-10 minutes. Once the meat has cooked, add the chopped mushrooms and onions and cook for another 5 minutes. Lastly, add the garlic, stir, and allow to cook for another minute.
  3. Pour in the pasta sauce and stir. Reduce heat to low to medium heat. Using a food chopper or some sort of chopper device, finely chop the zucchini, squash, and carrots. Add the veggies to the pasta sauce and stir. Season the sauce by adding the salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, parsley, red crushed pepper flakes, onion, and garlic powder. Finally added the Parmesan cheese.
  4. Preheat oven to 350 Degrees
  5. In a medium bowl, add the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Turn the spinach to a drainer and squeeze the excess moisture out of the spinach. Pour the spinach into the bowl with the ricotta cheese. Stir using a spoon.
  6. Using a 9X13 rectangle casserole dish and spoon some about half of the pasta sauce onto the bottom of the dish. Take one lasagna noodle and place flat on a surface. Take about a tablespoon and a half of the ricotta cheese mixture and spread onto the lasagna noodle from end to end.
  7. Roll the lasagna noodles and place seam side down on top of the sauce. Repeat the process until all noodles are used. Spoon the remaining sauce on top and sprinkle with fresh mozzarella cheese and place inside oven for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is completely melted. Remove from oven and serve
  8. NOTE: If the sauce is too much for your liking you can freeze what you don’t use and save it for another meal.
