Savor the comforting flavors of a healthier lasagna that doesn’t compromise on taste. This guilt-free twist on a classic features layers of tender whole-grain or gluten-free lasagna sheets, rich and tangy marinara sauce, and a creamy cottage cheese blend. Lean ground turkey or plant-based crumbles provide hearty protein without the extra fat. A sprinkle of low-fat mozzarella on top creates that golden, bubbly finish we all love. This lighter version of lasagna is perfect for family dinners or meal prep, offering all the satisfaction of the original with a wholesome, nourishing touch. This is great for freezing and meal prepping ahead of time!
