For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the turkey mixture. Feel free to substitute ground beef or chicken for the turkey. To prevent sticking, lightly grease the baking dish before assembling the lasagna. Cooling before serving allows the lasagna to set, making it easier to cut and serve. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for added flavor and visual appeal.
