Lasagna Dip

Ingredients:
1/2 lb. ground turkey
1 c. tomato sauce (homemade or store-bought)
1 c. low-fat cottage cheese, ricotta cheese or cream cheese
1 c. partially skim mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions:
Cook the turkey.  Add the tomato sauce and simmer until it thickens a bit, about 3-5 minutes.

Spread the cheese over the bottom of a baking dish, followed by the sauce and finally the mozzarella cheese.

Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until the top is a light golden brown and the sides are bubbling, about 15-20 minutes.

Note~ Can do it in a slow cooker: cook the turkey and add the tomato sauce and simmer until it thickens a bit, about 3-5 minutes.  Layer it the same as the recipe above states.  Cook in the slow cooker until the cheese is nice and melted about 1-2 hours on high or 2-4 hours on low.

Can use ground beef or Italian sausage instead of ground turkey or omit the meat entirely if you desire.
