Healthy Lasagna Roll Ups
Ingredients
  • 8 whole wheat lasagna noodles
  • 1/2 pound ground turkey
  • 6 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 (15 ounce) container reduced-fat ricotta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled low-fat feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (28 ounce) jar low-fat tomato pasta sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a hot temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Fill a large pot with water and add a pinch of salt to the water. Bring the water to a rolling boil, then cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions until they are tender. Drain the noodles.
3
In a pan over medium heat, cook ground turkey with minced garlic until it is no longer pink, breaking the meat apart as it cooks. Stir in a handful of fresh herbs - including spinach, chives, oregano, parsley, and basil - into the ground turkey mixture.
4
In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until they become frothy. Mix ricotta, feta, and Parmesan cheeses into the whipped egg whites until well combined. Add a few grinds of black pepper to taste.
5
Mix the cooked ground turkey mixture into the cheese mixture until well combined.
6
Place a sheet of waxed paper on a flat surface. Divide the filling into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Place a ball of filling on one end of a cooked lasagna noodle and roll the pasta up around the filling, starting from the other end. Repeat with the remaining noodles and filling.
7
Spread a thin layer of pasta sauce over the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange the rolled lasagna noodles seam-side down in the dish, and pour the remaining pasta sauce over them. Sprinkle a layer of Cheddar cheese on top.
8
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven until the cheese topping has melted and the sauce is bubbling, approximately 40 minutes.
