Palmini is made wholly of hearts of palm – which might sound like a random pasta substitute but the “noodles” take on 100% of the flavor of any dreamy sauce you put on them. So let’s make it creamy, flavorful and extra cheesy!

Servings 6
Ingredients
- 2 15-oz. cans Palmini Hearts of Palm Lasagna noodles
- 1 cup plain unsweetened plant milk
- 1 lb. ground turkey
- 2 cups marinara sauce plus 1/4 cup for pan
- 1 15-oz. container part-skim ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 6 tbs. grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 handful basil leaves chopped
- olive oil
- salt and pepper
Instructions
Start by draining + rinsing Palmini lasagna noodles. Place them in a shallow bowl and cover with plain plant milk, letting sit for 30 mins.
Make lasagna filling by browning ground turkey: in a medium skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tbs. olive oil then add turkey, breaking up with wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper then cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 mins before adding minced garlic. Cook another minute then add to mixing bowl to let cool.
Into the same bowl add 2 cups marinara, the container of ricotta and basil, reserving a few leaves for serving. Mix together and taste, adjusting seasonings if needed.
In an 8×8 pan covered in foil and sprayed with cooking spray, add 1/4 cup marinara to bottom. Then place down your first layer of Palmini; I used 8 pieces each layer. Add an even layer of turkey mixture on top, then another layer of Palmini. Top with 1/4 cup mozzarella and 2 tbs. grated cheese.
Repeat layers: Palmini, turkey mix, Palmini, cheese mix until pan is full. Top layer should be mozzarella and parm!
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes, then broil for 5 for cheese to become golden brown. Top with remaining basil. Let cool before slicing and serving!

Why do you need to soak it in a milk?

Hi Kathryn! Thanks for your question. Soaking the palmini noodles in milk helps neutralize their briny flavor, but it is not necessary.

Just boil the Palmini for 5 mins. Softens it and takes the brine taste away.

It turned out delicious! I rinsed the palmini and sliced them into smaller pieces for easier eating for the little ones. I also boiled it for 5 minutes. (Great tip! It did remove the briny taste.) I also added a layer of sauteed spinach for some extra vegetable. Thanks for the great recipe.Reply

First time trying Palmini & was not disappointed with this recipe!! Absolutely delicious!! I didn’t have any ricotta so had to make an alternative (coconut milk & almond flour) & as I follow Paleo AIP I used homemade no-mato sauce ( no tomatoes, made with beets) which both worked great! Recipe is definitely going to made again many times!! ❤️
