Savor this comforting dish featuring hearty whole wheat pasta tossed in a creamy, tangy Greek yogurt sauce, perfectly complemented by crispy turkey bacon and a burst of fresh spinach. Each bite blends wholesome flavors and textures, creating a satisfying meal that's both nourishing and indulgent.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (85g)
3 slices Turkey Bacon (51g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (120g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1 Garlic Clove (3g)
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Finely mince the garlic clove and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the turkey bacon slices to the skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until they become crispy. Once done, transfer the bacon onto a paper towel to drain any excess fat and then chop into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir in the fresh spinach (it will slightly wilt when mixed with the warm pasta) and add the crispy turkey bacon bits.
Toss the drained pasta into the creamy mixture, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately while warm for a delightful blend of textures and flavors.
