Lasagna – Meat (Dairy Free)

Preheat your oven to 375° F.
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, then add sausage and sauté until browned, stirring as needed, about 3-5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium and add in the onions and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic, stir, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper, if desired.
Cook and stir until softened, then add the spinach or kale and stir until wilted. Add in 1 cup of marinara and stir to heat through, then remove from heat.
Spread 1/2 cup of remaining marinara onto the bottom of a 9×9 inch casserole dish. Put lasagna noodles on top of the pasta sauce side by side, tear some in 1/2 if you need to. Top the noodles with 1/2 of the turkey sausage mixture and evenly spread 1/2 of the cheese sauce on top. Sprinkle 1/2 of the chopped fresh herbs on top.
Repeat these layers.
Bake in the preheated oven (middle rack) for 20-25 minutes, until hot and bubbly. Garnish with basil before serving. Enjoy!
