2 tablespoons olive oil 1 cup chopped yellow onion (1 onion) 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 1/2 pounds sweet Italian turkey sausage, casings removed One 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes in tomato puree One 6-ounce can tomato paste 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, divided 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves 2 teaspoons kosher salt 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/2 pound lasagna noodles 15 ounces ricotta cheese 3 to 4 ounces creamy goat cheese, crumbled 1 cup grated Parmesan, plus 1/4 cup for sprinkling 1 extra-large egg, lightly beaten 1 pound fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
I ran into this Ina Garten recipe while I was reading this article from The Kitchn. They tried 4 famous lasagna recipes and Inas won the competition and I thought it sounded really good. Its made with turkey sausage which would normally make me roll my eyes a little bit (same with turkey bacon) but the article really sold it to me. The turkey lasagna came out REALLY well, and I ate it for multiple days in a row. It was super flavorful and the noodles were the perfect texture, the tomato sauce was really bright, and the chunks of fresh mozzarella were to die for! It was also pretty simple to make!
Changes I made to the recipe: I misread the recipe and thought it said 1.5 lbs of fresh mozzarella and didnt realize until after I made it that it called for 1 lb. It was a happy mistake and when I make this recipe again, Ill probably bump it up to 2 lbs!
