1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 medium Onion
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, stirring until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Stir in the tomato sauce and cooked lentils, allowing the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Mix in the cooked whole-wheat ziti to incorporate all flavors evenly.
Transfer the turkey and lentil mixture to a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Remove from the oven, let it sit for a couple of minutes, and serve warm.
