INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Beef
2 oz Turkey Sausage
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic in a small amount of olive oil until fragrant.
Add the lean ground beef and turkey sausage to the skillet. Break the meat apart and cook until fully browned and no longer pink.
Stir in the tomato sauce and fresh basil, allowing the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Combine the cooked pasta with the meat and sauce mixture in an ovenproof dish. Dollop the creamy ricotta over the top and gently stir it in, leaving some visible for texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the dish is heated through and the flavors are well blended.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed meal.
