Make the béchamel sauce by melting the butter, add the flour a bit at a time, stirring all the time, add the milk & bay leaf, keep stirring until it thickens, remove from the heat & remove the bay leaf, set aside.
Using an oven-proof dish at least 20x12x4cm cover the base with a layer of the turkey, cover with pasta sheets, breaking if necessary to fit, then a layer of the béchamel sauce, pasta sheet, turkey, pasta sheet & finish with a final layer of the béchamel sauce . Sprinkle the top with the cheese and cook for 30 mins until cooked and browned.

Mmm looks so good will have to give it a try :)
 
This is fab way of making it "free" :)
 
Hi Everyone,

I know this is quite an old thread so am hoping some of you who have made this are still on here...I'm not a fan of quark as I find it too bitter/sour so I wondered those who have made this can you still taste the quark once it has been cooked? I know this may be a silly question but I really want to make a SW friendly lasagne but want to check this first x

Hi sorry just rejoined and saw your message!! It does not taste of Quark when cooked luckily as I also do not like the taste. Mixing it with the mustard, parsley and eggs seems to combat it and also the other flavours. So it is more like a white sauce really.
 
Hi Josie,

That's ok and thanks for replying :)

I haven't made it yet as I was worried about making the white sauce but after this reply from you I will try it as I guess there is nothing to lose by trying it x
 
This does sound very tasty! I love lasagne but wasn't sure how to make it as low syn as possible! Now i've picked up some quark I will give this a go! Thank you.
 
I made this tonight but it really didn't need as much cheese as 6 days worth, so only used 150g of cathedral city lighter cheddar and a sprinkle of light parmesan. Can't wait to try it with a big salad and SW slaw :)


 
Gonna make this for supper tomorrow........ Sounds delish x
