Healthier World's Best Lasagna

Method

1. 1

   Heat a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium heat. Add turkey sausage, ground turkey, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until well browned, about 15 minutes. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and water. Season with parsley, basil, Italian seasoning, fennel seeds, and black pepper; simmer, uncovered, about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

3. 3

   Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.

4. 4

   Spread 1 1/2 cups sauce in bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Arrange 6 noodles lengthwise over sauce. Spread half the ricotta over noodles; top with one third mozzarella slices. Spoon 1 1/2 cups sauce over mozzarella; sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan. Repeat layers; top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cover dish with aluminum foil, making sure foil doesn't touch cheese to prevent sticking.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven until sauce hot and cheese melted, about 25 minutes. Remove foil; continue baking until cheese golden brown, about 25 minutes more. Cool 15 minutes before serving.
