No Noodle Turkey Lasagna

I made this recipe when I went home earlier this semester and wanted to share it with everyone because it is amazing.
Ingredients
Mozzarella cheese
2 Medium Zucchinis
1 Large Eggplant
1lb Extra lean ground turkey
1 jar of garlic and basil tomato sauce
1 onion diced
1 1/2 cups of low fat ricotta cheese
1/2 cup parmesan
1 tsp Italian seasoning
olive oil
salt and pepper for seasoning
First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Put some olive oil in a large skillet and cook the turkey meet and diced onions until it browns. Continue by adding your tomato sauce and Italian seasoning. Cut the eggplants into long stripped pieces and add olive oil, salt, and pepper over them. Cook these while in the oven till browned while turkey is cooking in your skillet.
From here its just like traditional lasagna. Line the bottom with the ground turkey, layer of zuchinni and eggplant, ricotta layer, mozzarella. You keep doing this until you are out of stuff. Cover top with mozzarella and parmesan and let it cook about 20 minutes.
This is a healthier alternative to your traditional lasagna dish that tastes amazing.
