INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1/2 cup cooked Ziti Pasta
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 small Onion
1 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the ziti pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook thoroughly, breaking it up into small pieces until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the marinara sauce and let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, turkey sauce, and low-fat cottage cheese until evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and top with chopped fresh basil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the dish is heated through and the flavors meld together.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
