2 15-oz. cans Palmini Hearts of Palm Lasagna noodles
1 cup plain unsweetened plant milk
1lb ground turkey
2 cups marinara sauce, plus 1/4 cup for pan
1 15-oz. container part-skim ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
6 tbs. grated parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 handful basil leaves, chopped
olive oil
salt and pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Start by draining + rinsing Palmini lasagna noodles. Place them in a shallow bowl and cover with plain plant milk, letting sit for 30 mins.
Make lasagna filling by browning ground turkey: in a medium skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tbs. olive oil then add turkey, breaking up with wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper then cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 mins before adding minced garlic. Cook another minute then add to mixing bowl to let cool.
Into the same bowl add 2 cups marinara, the container of ricotta and basil, reserving a few leaves for serving. Mix together and taste, adjusting seasonings if needed.
In an 8×8 pan covered in foil and sprayed with cooking spray, add 1/4 cup marinara to bottom. Then place down your first layer of Palmini; I used 8 pieces each layer. Add an even layer of turkey mixture on top, then another layer of Palmini. Top with 1/4 cup mozzarella and 2 tbs. grated cheese.
Repeat layers: Palmini, turkey mix, Palmini, cheese mix until pan is full. Top layer should be mozzarella and parm!
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes, then broil for 5 for cheese to become golden brown. Top with remaining basil. Let cool before slicing and serving!

Yes! This is just an extra step that some people like to take. It is not necessary
