"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

1 medium onion
1 green bell pepper
2-3 cloves garlic
2 T. olive oil
1 T. Italian seasoning blend
15 oz Ricotta Cheese (whole milk)

Directions:
Chop onion & green pepper, mince garlic and sauté all in 1 T. olive oil. Add Italian seasoning and set aside. Brown ground turkey in remaining olive oil. (use more oil if needed)
Combine veggies, meat, and 2 jars sauce in a bowl.
Mix together the ricotta cheese, eggs, parsley, and 1 cup of the parmesan cheese. Beat well.
Spray a 9x13 baking pan with oil spray.
Ladle about 3/4 cup of the sauce mix in the bottom of the pan, cover with 3 noodles laid side by side. Next top the noodles with 1/3 of the ricotta mixture. Repeat for two more layers. Top off a final layer with noodles and the rest of the sauce. Pour the boiling water around the edges of the stack. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 for 1 hour. Remove foil, top with remaining parmesan cheese and bake another 10 minutes or so until the cheese melts and browns a little. Let rest about 10 minutes before slicing. Freezes well if there is any left!

for transparency sake i must admit this is the basic recipe from the back of the lasagna box! Bernardo (Bunny) really liked this when i made it for them. the most important ingredient is love, of course! Love you Bunny!

P.S. you can add a layer of fresh spinach leaves. Also, this can be made with finely chopped v=roasted vegetables instead of meat; try fresh mushrooms, carrots, spinach, and squash. Divine!
