Ingredient List

Sauce

  • 1 pound uncooked lasagna noodles
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 medium onions, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 package (20 oz) ground turkey breast
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons dried basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley leaves
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 can (28 oz each) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 cups grated carrots
  • 1/2 cup Mountain High® original plain yoghurt

Filling

  • 1 container (15 oz) part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 1 bag (6 oz) fresh baby spinach leaves
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Preparation

  1. Cook lasagna noodles as directed on package; drain.
  2. Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook onions in oil, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes or until softened. Add turkey breast, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until turkey is no longer pink; drain.
  3. Add garlic and walnuts. Mix well and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add tomato paste, basil, oregano, thyme, parsley, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, canned tomatoes, and carrots. Mix ingredients well. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add yoghurt just at end of cooking time, stir in gently, and remove from heat.
  4. Meanwhile, make the filling: Combine ricotta and spinach leaves in a food processor, pulsing until well blended. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and fold in beaten eggs.
  5. Cover the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish with a layer of lasagna noodles. Spoon 1/3 of the meat sauce over the pasta. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the Parmesan cheese, then spread 1/2 of the ricotta mixture on top. Place another layer of pasta on top and repeat with 1/3 of the meat sauce, 1/3 of the Parmesan, and the remaining ricotta mixture. Place a final layer of pasta on top and cover with the remaining meat sauce and Parmesan cheese.
  6. Bake at 350°F for about 50 to 60 minutes or until bubbly. Let sit 5 minutes before cutting.
