Vodka Cream Avocado Lasagna

So I began russling through the cupboards for something to make for dinner... I found lasagne sheets, and a few other things that would make for a good lasagne and created my own amazing recipe! I hope you enjoy this as much as my family did!

Here are the ingredients I started with...

1 lb italian lean ground turkey

1 jar Newmans own Vodka Sauce

Skim milk

Mozzarella cheese

Parmesan cheese

Avocado

Spinach (Opt.)

Barilla lasagne flat no boil sheets

(Vodka cream sauce tends to be a little thick straight out of the jar so adding about 3/4C -1C of skim milk to a jar of sauce will give it the perfect consistency, reduce the fat(if you use less), and make the sauce nice and light. It may seem a bit runny, but the pasta will need and soak up all of those added juices!)

Layer the ingredients... you can use more or less based on how much you are comfortable with.

Yummy!!

• Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Lightly brown ground turkey in pan maintaining some moisture to prevent the meat from drying out. ( I added rosemary, thyme, oregano to the already seasoned meat for added flavor.)
• Using a 9 x 13 baking dish place a small amt of diluted vodka sauce on the bottom of the pan. ( This will help with cooking your sheets and keeping the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.)
• Layer 4 pasta sheets slightly over lapping on bottom of dish.
• Next place a small layer of avocado and turkey sausage.
• Finish off bottom layer with a layer of mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
• Follow suit with a similar layer of pasta, sauce, avocado, meat, and cheese.
• Depending on whether you choose to do 3 or 4 layers you can continue suit for the next layer or finalize with the top layer.
• For the top... pasta, sauce, and cheese mixture.
• Before placing in oven place a nice amt of diluted sauce mixture all around the pan making it almost even with top layer. The juices will cook out and leave you with a deliciously moist and perfectly cooked lasagne.
• Bake at 375 degrees for 40-60 minutes or until sauce is bubbling or juices have mostly diminished.
