How To Make Gluten-Free Lasagna- Step-by-Step
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Oil or butter a 9×13-inch pan. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, over medium heat, pour the olive oil and add the chopped yellow onion. Cook until the onions are softened and start to be translucent.
- Add the ground turkey and sprinkle the salt, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix and cook until the turkey is no longer pink. Use a heat-proof spoon to break the turkey into pieces while cooking.
- Add the tomato basil sauce. Mix well and keep cooking on medium heat for 4-5 minutes until the turkey sauce mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Italian seasoning, egg, 1 cup Mozzarella, and ⅓ cup grated Parmigiano. Mix until all ingredients are combined. Set aside.
- In your prepared baking dish, pour about ⅓ of the meat mixture.
- Place the uncooked lasagna noodles on top to cover the bottom. You may need to break some of the noodles.
- Add ½ of the ricotta mixture, and spread evenly.
- Add ⅓ of the shredded mozzarella, and spread evenly.
- Make your second layer, pasta, ⅓ of the meat sauce, ½ of the Ricotta mixture, and mozzarella.
- For your last layer, add the pasta, and the remainder of the meat sauce, and cover with mozzarella and Parmigiano.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated 350-degree oven for 45 to 55 minutes.
- After the 45 minutes, poke at the pasta they should be al dente, not hard.
- Uncover the baking dish and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes or until you have the desired light golden brown cheese on top.
- Let the lasagna rest for at least 15-20 minutes. Don’t worry it will still be hot when you eat it.
Tips & Tricks
- You can also make this recipe with ground beef if you prefer.
- You can add sauteed spinach to one of your layers.
- Top the recipe with parmesan cheese for a golden crust!
- Re-warm in the Microwave in an air fryer at 330 degrees F for 5 to 6 minutes. I even add more cheese when re-heating!
- Storage: Once completely cooled, place in an airtight container in the fridge for 4 days or freeze portions for later use.
- *Serve with Gluten-Free Garlic Bread!
