Tips and Variations
Tips and Variations
- If the ground turkey is frozen, put in the refrigerator to thaw the day before you use it. Put it on the bottom shelf in a dish so the thawing meat juices do not drip onto foods on lower shelves.
- To reduce fat, first brown the ground turkey thoroughly, then place in a colander and rinse under hot water. Drain the meat before adding to the lasagna recipe.
