270 Calorie, 6g Fat Lasagna Recipe (Serves 12)

saj6 · October 2011

Cooking light had a really good turkey burger recipe this summer (sorry, can't remember what issue and can't seem to find it right now) it had pictures of burgers on the front cover. Anyway the turkey burger has oven roasted eggplant puree in it as well as vegamite -which I had never tried before and I was a bit nervous about putting in but it tastes wonderful and not like a turkey burger! Even my kids ate it and they are very picky eaters. Well worth looking for and trying.

And your lasagna recipe looks good, and for those that can't find fat free ricotta (I can get low fat but not fat free here) I have substituted fat free cottage cheese with good results :-)

Thanks for the recipe.

This sounds so much healthier than the lasagna my family makes. I'm definitely going to try this recipe.

This sounds great! Sounds much better than the weight loss packaged lasagna meals.

Thanks for the heads up on the Cooking Light turkey burger. I tried vegamite the other day! It was be great in stews or as a rub for steak. I'll bet it covered the "turkey" taste of the burgers quite nicely! Will google the recipe. :flowerforyou:

Another cheat to save calories? Replace one layer of lasagna noodle with thinly slices eggplant or summer squash.

Wow! Great party recipe.

Sounds great!

As for turkey burgers, I make mine using 93% lean turkey. To keep them moist I saute chopped onions and mushrooms in a little bit of olive or canola oil then add it to the ground turkey. I have also heard recently that you can add a bit of oil to the meat itself to make them more moist. Form patties and cook.
