INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Ziti Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup diced Zucchini
1/2 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (no salt added)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the lean ground turkey until fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Add the diced zucchini and red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite Italian herbs.
Mix in the cooked pasta with the turkey and vegetable sauce until everything is well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is slightly melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve warm.
