INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Ziti (cooked)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (No Salt Added)
1/2 cup Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/2 cup Chopped Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 medium Onion, diced
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion until soft. Add lean ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula.
Add the chopped zucchini and spinach to the skillet, and cook until the spinach wilts slightly.
Stir in the tomato sauce, allowing it to warm through, and season with salt, pepper, and your favorite Italian herbs if desired.
Mix in the cooked whole wheat ziti along with the ricotta cheese, ensuring the pasta is well coated in the sauce and turkey mixture.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-proof baking dish. Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your protein-packed baked ziti!
