Ingredients

1 pound ground turkey
2 cloves garlic minced
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 ounces curly-edged lasagna noodles 8 sheets, broken into 2-inch pieces
26 ounces jarred pasta sauce such as Rao's
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups water
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¾ cup whole-milk ricotta cheese or less as desired
¼ cup shredded basil

Instructions

Brown meat in 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat, breaking it into pieces with a wooden spoon, 3 to 5 minutes.
1 pound ground turkey
Stir in the garlic, pepper flakes, and salt and cook over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
2 cloves garlic, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Sprinkle broken noodles in skillet, then pour in tomato sauce and water over top. Cover and cook, stirring often and adjusting heat as needed to maintain vigorous simmer, until noodles are tender, about 20 minutes. You may need to add a little more water if your noodles are not soft after 20 minutes.
6 ounces curly-edged lasagna noodles, 26 ounces jarred pasta sauce, 2 cups water
Off heat, stir in half of mozzarella and half of Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Dot heaping tablespoons of ricotta over noodles, then sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and let stand off heat until cheeses melt, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with basil before serving.
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, ¾ cup whole-milk ricotta cheese, ¼ cup shredded basil, ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Notes

Note: if you substitute ground beef or meatloaf mix for the ground turkey, drain the grease from the meat on paper towels before proceeding with the recipe.
