INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey (93% Lean)
2 oz Whole Wheat Ziti Pasta (dry)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (shredded)
2 cloves Garlic
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add a pinch of salt, and cook the whole wheat ziti pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add lean ground turkey to the pan, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, and cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through.
Stir in the marinara sauce and allow it to simmer for a few minutes. Mix in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
Combine the cooked pasta with the turkey and sauce mixture. Transfer everything into an oven-safe baking dish.
Sprinkle the low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the dish is heated through.
Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
