INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/4 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Ziti Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 cup Spinach
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground turkey and minced garlic. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Stir in the tomato sauce and Italian seasoning, letting the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fold in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt slightly into the mixture.
In a separate pot, prepare the whole wheat ziti pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Mix the cooked pasta with the turkey, tomato sauce, and spinach mixture. Gently fold in the part-skim ricotta cheese until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the dish is heated through and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
