INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Ziti Pasta
1/2 cup cooked Lentils
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 medium Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart as it cooks until it is mostly browned.
Stir in the Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
Mix in the tomato sauce and let the flavors meld for a few minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked whole wheat ziti, cooked lentils, and the turkey sauce mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before serving.
