INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Whole Wheat Ziti (cooked)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/2 cup cooked Zucchini
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until it’s no longer pink, breaking it up as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
Mix in chopped red bell pepper and zucchini, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
Stir in the marinara sauce and let it simmer for 2 more minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
In a baking dish, combine the cooked whole wheat ziti with the turkey and veggie mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Top the mixture with reduced-fat mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
