Turkey Picante Lasagna Gluten Free

This was one of my first recipes converted to gluten free. When I found some gluten free noodles, I had to try this family favorite. The best part of this recipe is not having to prepare the noodles (I’ll admit this was the main reason I tried this recipe to begin with pre-gluten free).

I love lasagna but the cooking the noodles, preparing the meat ingredient and then trying to layer it without the noodles breaking, oh just pull my hair out now.  I was not sure I loved any dish to work that hard!!  But here was a recipe where I did not have to cook the noodles!! Honey, I can open a package and put it in the casserole dish in record time and with flair, I might add.  This dish is sooo good and so easy.

My suggestion: I tried this with brown rice noodles first and have now switched over to corn noodles. I find corn noodles are more similar in taste to regular pasta and not as dense as pasta made with brown rice.
