1/2 cup chopped bell pepper

8 oz low-sodium tomato sauce
1 cup salsa, divided

carrot curls, optional
fresh parsley sprigs, optional

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. In nonstick skillet, over medium heat, saute turkey, onion, bell pepper,
black pepper and basil until turkey is no longer pink, stirring
occasionally to break up meat. Stir in tomato sauce and 1/2 cup salsa;
remove from heat.

3. In small bowl, combine cottage cheese and nacho dip.

cheese mixture over turkey mixture. Repeat chip, turkey and cheese layers.
Top with remaining crushed chips; pour remaining salsa evenly over chips.
