Meatball Lasagna

Ingredients:
12 turkey meatballs
1/2 cup part skim ricotta cheese
1/2 cup 2% Mozzarella Cheese
2 cups/180 g (cooked weight) yellow squash or zucchini or spaghetti squash
1 cup Italian diced tomatoes (less than 5 g of carbs per 1/2 cup)
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp dried basil
4 tsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 Jar Taste and See Pasta Sauce
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Layer zucchini or squash slices along the bottom of a medium sized casserole dish. Spread ricotta cheese over the squash. Sprinkle garlic salt and basil over the ricotta cheese and squash slices. Combine diced tomatoes with meatball pieces in a small bowl. Pour over ricotta cheese. Sprinkle mozzarella over meatballs and then top with grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is melted. There will be some water or liquid from the squash or ricotta. This is normal. I just drain it from the casserole dish by tipping the dish slightly to the side while making sure the lasagna doesn’t pour it as well. Finish with a liberal amount of Taste and See Sauce and Enjoy!
