So, this is one of those clean recipes that no one knows is clean or healthy. I made it once before and we loved it. When the kids asked what I was making or dinner the other night and I told them, "Mexican Lasagna" they all said OOOHHH! Now, I don't know about you, but that is a small miracle when ALL of the children like the same thing....at the same time. Anyway, this clean recipe is so full of flavor it will blow you away. To top off your Mexican Fiesta, you can add some fresh avocado and plain greek yogurt....both of which I was out of.
-1 lb. lean ground turkey
-1 cup low fat shredded cheddar
-1 cup cottage cheese
-1 cup clean salsa
-1/2 can black beans
-1 small onion, chopped
-1 TBS taco seasoning
-4 whole wheat tortillas cut into strips (I like the Santa Fe brand from Costco)
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a skillet, cook ground turkey and onion. Once cooked, turn to low and add salsa and taco seasoning.
3. In a bowl, combine 3/4 cup shredded cheese and cottage cheese.
4. In a baking dish sprayed with cooking spray, line with 1/2 of the tortilla strips. Scoop 1/2 o the meat mixture on top and spread out, covering tortillas. Then add 1/2 o the cheese mixture on top o the meat and spread. Repeat the layers and top with remaining shredded cheese.
5. Cover and bake for 40 minutes. Enjoy! Makes 4 servings at 350 calories each.
