Turkey and Broccoli Filled Lasagna Rolls

4 dried lasagna noodles

½ pkg ground turkey (approx. ½ lb)

¼ cup chopped onion

1 cup chopped broccoli

¼ cup water

1 beaten egg

1 cup (8 oz) low fat cottage cheese

½ tsp dried thyme

1 ½ cups meatless spaghetti sauce

¼ cup shredded cheese (parmesan or mozzarella)

Cook lasagna noodles according to pkg instructions until tender but still firm. Drain noodles; rinse with cold water. Drain again.

For filling, in a large skillet cook ground turkey and onions until turkey is no longer pink. Drain fat. Stir in broccoli and water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and let simmer for about 5 min.; drain.

In a mixing bowl, stir together egg, cottage cheese and thyme. Add in turkey mixture. Lay out all 4 lasagna noodles on a cutting board or clean counter, divide up filling mixture evenly among the noodles and spread it out on top of the noodle. Roll up each noodle, jelly roll style and place in a 2 qt square baking dish. Spoon spaghetti sauce over lasagna rolls.

Bake, covered, @ 375 for about 30 min. or until heated through. Uncover and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Makes 4 main dish servings.

Turkey & Broccoli Lasagna Rolls

When you roll up the noodles, just know that it's a messy task! Excess that falls out when rolling, I just toss back in to the baking dish in the empty spaces so it's not wasted. My kids pick out the broccoli, but they're missing out! It's a delicious combination! Hope you like it.
