INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 oz Whole Wheat Ziti (dry)

1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup Zucchini (sliced)
1/4 cup Onion (diced)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion and garlic until fragrant and softened.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook thoroughly until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Season with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, zucchini, and spinach, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.
Combine the cooked pasta with the turkey and vegetable mixture. Transfer the combined ingredients into an oven-safe baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Remove from the oven, give a gentle stir, and serve warm.
