INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Extra Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Whole Grain Ziti (dry)
1/2 medium Zucchini
1 cup Spinach
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole grain ziti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Add the extra lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula.
Chop the zucchini into small half-moons and add to the skillet along with the spinach. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the tomato sauce and let the mixture simmer for another 2 minutes to meld the flavors.
Combine the cooked ziti with the turkey and veggie mixture. Mix thoroughly and transfer into a baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
