INGREDIENTS
1 cup Whole Wheat Ziti (cooked)
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the lean ground turkey. Cook until lightly browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
Stir in the Italian seasoning, then add the tomato sauce to the skillet. Allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes.
Fold in the fresh spinach until just wilted, then remove from heat.
Combine the cooked ziti and the turkey-tomato sauce mixture in a baking dish. Dot the top with spoonfuls of part-skim ricotta cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until heated through and slightly bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving to enjoy all the flavors.
