Ingredients
  

Noodles

  • water for boiling
  • 9 lasagna noodles (Jovial Foods brown rice)

Meat Sauce

  • 2-3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • ¼ yellow onion diced
  • 1 small/medium zucchini diced
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup mixed greens chopped
  • 24 oz jar of pasta sauce (Newman's Own Organics Marinara)

Cashew Ricotta

  • 1 recipe from Veggie Society linked in notes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375F (190C).
  • Bring a large pot with water to a boil. Add your noodles and stir and cook for 4-5 minutes. You can either leave them in the pot until needed, or strain into a colander.
  • While the water is heating, heat a large skillet to medium high heat, and add the olive oil.
  • Add the ground turkey and diced onion and cook until the turkey is browned and there is no longer any pink.
  • Next, add the zucchini to the pan and stir and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Season the meat and veg mixture with the salt, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
  • Pour the entire jar of pasta sauce into the pan and stir everything together.
  • Make the recipe for Cashew Ricotta (link is in the notes below) using your blender.
  • Assemble the lasagna by laying 3 noodles on the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish. Next, spread ⅓ of the cashew ricotta mixture over the noodles. Then, spoon and spread ⅓ of the meat sauce over the cream.
  • Repeat these layers one more time: 3 noodles, ⅓ cashew cream, ⅓ meat sauce.
  • For the final layer, add the 3 noodles, then spoon the remaining meat sauce, then dollop the remaining cashew cream over the top. Use a sharp knife to swirl the dollops.
  • Bake the lasagna in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Enjoy!
