INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Whole Wheat Ziti Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 Garlic clove
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, seasoning with salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs. Cook until the meat is browned and cooked through, breaking it up into small pieces.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes so the flavors can meld together.
Meanwhile, prepare the whole wheat ziti according to package instructions, ensuring it is al dente. Drain and set aside.
Mix the cooked pasta with the turkey tomato mixture, then fold in the fresh spinach. The heat from the mixture will slightly wilt the spinach.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish, top with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the dish is heated through and the cheese has melted.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve warm.
