INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Macaroni
0.33 cup shredded Part-skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt
0.25 teaspoon Garlic Powder
0.25 teaspoon Onion Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground turkey until browned and cooked through, breaking it up into small pieces. Season with garlic powder and onion powder.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir until just wilted.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey and spinach mixture with the macaroni, non-fat Greek yogurt, and most of the shredded mozzarella (reserve a small amount for topping). Mix until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving.
