INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Ziti (cooked)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Marinara Sauce (No Sugar Added)
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into small pieces. Roughly chop the fresh spinach.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, diced vegetables, spinach, low-fat ricotta, and marinara sauce. Stir gently until well mixed.
Fold in the cooked whole wheat ziti, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated with the mixture.
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the dish is heated through and the flavors meld together.
Remove from the oven and let stand for a few minutes before serving.
