1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 cup Spinach
1/4 cup shredded Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Bring a pot of water to boil and cook whole wheat ziti pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté minced garlic until fragrant.
Add lean ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces. Stir in dried Italian herbs.
Mix in tomato sauce and add fresh spinach, allowing the spinach to wilt slightly.
Combine the cooked pasta with the beef and spinach mixture. Transfer everything into a small baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it cool slightly before serving.
