INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti (120g)
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (113g)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (125g)
3 oz Extra Lean Ground Turkey (85g)
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Dried Basil
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Boil whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, then add the extra lean ground turkey; cook until browned and fully cooked. Season with salt, pepper, and dried basil.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spaghetti, turkey mixture, tomato sauce, and half of the cottage cheese. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish. Dollop the remaining cottage cheese evenly over the top and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving for a comforting, protein-rich meal.
