Easy One-Pot Lasagna
Easy healthy one-pot lasagna is a great way to get a homemade lasagna served up without all the fuss!
Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large shallots, minced
- 3 medium carrots, minced or shredded
- 1 lb. ground turkey, I use 93% fat-free
- Salt and pepper
- 1 24-25 oz. jar tomato basil sauce or marinara sauce
- ½ cup dry red wine
- 4 oz. cream cheese, I use ⅓ less fat
- 4 oz. no-boil lasagna noodles
- 6 oz. Fresh mozzarella, cut into thin slices
For serving:
- Grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat oil in a large pot (or use a Dutch oven) over medium heat.
- Add shallots and carrots and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until tender.
- Add ground turkey to the pan, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking up with a spoon as it cooks.
- Add the tomato sauce and red wine, bring to a simmer then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 10 minutes.
- Add cream cheese to the skillet and stir until it’s melted into the sauce.
- Break lasagna noodles into 3-4 pieces each and nestle them into the sauce so they are covered (and not sticking out the top).
- Tuck mozzarella cheese slices in among the noodles and layer the rest on the top of the pot.
- Transfer the pot to the oven and bake at 350 for 20 minutes, until noodles are al dente, cheese is melted and everything is bubbly.
- Let stand for 5-10 minutes, to let it set up, before scooping and serving.

Notes
If you need this to be alcohol-free, you can substitute chicken or beef broth for the red wine.
You can broil this for 1-2 minutes or turn your oven up to about 425 for the last couple of minutes of cooking to brown the cheese on top, if yours hasn’t browned much. Just keep an eye on it!
Leftovers: Any leftovers, once cooled, can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave until hot.
