Delicious Spinach and Turkey Lasagna

Recipe View Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). (Prep time: 5 minutes)

Recipe View Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions for al dente texture (usually 8-10 minutes). Drain well and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. (Cook time: 15 minutes)

Recipe View Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess fat. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

Recipe View Stir in tomato sauce, sliced mushrooms, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and garlic powder into the turkey mixture. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow flavors to meld. Season to taste with salt if needed. (Cook time: 7 minutes)

Recipe View In a large bowl, combine chopped fresh spinach, ricotta cheese, and ground nutmeg. Mix well until evenly combined. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

Recipe View To assemble the lasagna, lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange 3 cooked lasagna noodles lengthwise on the bottom of the dish, slightly overlapping if necessary. Spread 1/3 of the ricotta mixture evenly over the noodles, followed by 1/3 of the turkey mixture, and then sprinkle with 1/3 of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat these layers two more times, ending with the remaining mozzarella cheese on top. (Assembly time: 15 minutes)

Recipe View Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the lasagna is heated through. (Cook time: 25 minutes)

Recipe View Let the lasagna rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the layers to set and makes it easier to cut. (Rest time: 10 minutes)
