Pumpkin Lasagne
This was a recipe made up by a friend from high school, Stephanie V. I put the information into LoseIt's recipe calculator. Pretty nice tool for home made recipes. I would have had a hard time guessing how much this would have been.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes
12 servings, 485 calories per serving
12 g of fat, 65.4g of Protein (obviously there are some ingredients that you can reduce or cut out to save on fat)
10 pcs. of sage
10 slices of prosciutto
5 lbs. of ground lean turkey
Small container of part skim milk ricotta cheese
Small container of non-fat cottage cheese
1 cup of Parmesan cheese
15 oz. of Canned Pumpkin (not the one for pies with the spices mixed in)
Small bag of fresh baby spinach (don’t use frozen)
2 eggs
Pepper
Package of whole wheat lasagna noodles (do not pre-cook)
Marinara or spaghetti sauce
Directions:
Fry sage till dark green (remove as soon as it turns or else it will turn bitter)
Fry prosciutto till golden brown. Drain on paper towels. You will crumble this later.
Cook turkey in seasoned pan until done.
While turkey is cooking, mix cheeses, pumpkin and crumbled sage in a bowl. Add about 1 tsp. of pepper. Add 2 whipped eggs. Stir till incorporated.
Warm marinara sauce.
When turkey is done be prepared to begin layering your ingredients.
Marinara, pasta, cheese/ pumpkin mixture, turkey, crumbled prosciutto, spinach (generous), sprinkle with marinara, noodles, cheese mixture..etc. Until you get to the top. Top off with marinara and covered with foil. When it is done, let it sit for about 15 minutes to set up.
