Turkey and Zucchini Lasagna with Sweet Potato Noodles

INGREDIENTS

For the noodles:

1 lb

white-fleshed sweet potato, peeled (If you can find one, a very large potato that weighs about one pound makes the noodles look very realistic!)

For the filling:

2 cups

zucchini, julienne-cut or shredded (about 1 zucchini)

2 cups

yellow squash, julienne-cut or shredded (about 1 squash)

4 tbsp

avocado oil, divided, plus more for greasing

1 lb

ground turkey (although any ground meat will work)

1 tbsp

fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

1 tbsp

fresh oregano, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

6 cloves

garlic

1 tsp

sea salt, divided

1 tbsp

nutritional yeast (optional, for cheesy flavor)
