Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3 cups nonfat milk
3 oz reduced-fat cream cheese, cubed
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 lb italian turkey sausage link, casings removed and crumbled
1 medium onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried marjoram
1/2 tsp fennel seed, crushed
1 (7 1/2 oz) jar roasted sweet red peppers, drained and chopped
1/2 cup white wine or 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 (10 oz) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
3/4 cup 2% fat cottage cheese
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
9 lasagna noodles, cooked, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions:

In a saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in cream cheese until melted. Stir in Parmesan cheese just until melted. Remove from the heat; set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray, cook sausage, onion and garlic over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink; drain. Stir in oregano, marjoram and fennel; cook for 1 minute.
Add roasted peppers and wine or broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes or until liquid is reduced to 3 tablespoons. Remove from the heat; set aside. In a small bowl, combine spinach, cottage cheese and nutmeg; set aside.
Spread 1/2 cup reserved cheese sauce in a 13 x9 x2 baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray. Top with three noodles, half of the sausage mixture, half of the spinach mixture and 1 cup sauce; repeat layers. Top with remaining noodles and sauce. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Cover and bake at 375 for 40 minutes. Uncover; bake 15-20 minutes longer or until heated through and top is lightly browned. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
