INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 oz Whole Wheat Ziti (dry)
1/3 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 cup Spinach
1/4 medium Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and garlic in a splash of olive oil until fragrant and softened.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, cooking until it is browned and no longer pink. Stir in the dried Italian herbs while cooking.
Mix in the diced red bell pepper and spinach to the turkey, cooking briefly until the spinach wilts.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes.
Combine the cooked pasta with the turkey and veggie mixture in a baking dish. Dollop the low-fat ricotta cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the dish is heated through and the top starts to set.
Remove from oven, let it cool slightly, and serve warm.
