Brush the mixture over the cooked lasagna noodle triangles.

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent.
Add the ground beef or turkey, cooking until browned and fully cooked.
Season with cumin, garlic salt, oregano, Sazon (optional), onion powder, and parsley. Stir well to combine.
