Step 1

Prepare the Lasagna Noodles: Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and lay them flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Cook Ground Turkey : In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cajun seasoning, and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the ground turkey is no longer pink. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add diced onion, garlic, and red bell pepper. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4

Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and egg. Add the sautéed vegetables and cooked ground turkey to the mixture. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5

Assemble the Roll-Ups: Spread a thin layer of the filling onto each lasagna noodle. Roll up each noodle carefully and place seam-side down in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 6

Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add marinara sauce and heavy cream, stirring until well combined. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 7

Bake: Pour the sauce evenly over the lasagna roll-ups in the baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 8

Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Enjoy the Cajun twist on this classic comfort dish!
