INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
2 ounces Whole Wheat Ziti (dry)
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1/4 small Onion (chopped)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant and softened.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula until it is fully cooked and no longer pink.
Stir in the tomato sauce and fresh spinach, allowing the spinach to wilt and the flavors to meld. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and dried oregano to taste.
Combine the cooked ziti with the turkey and spinach mixture, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the sauce.
Transfer the mixture into a small, oven-safe baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
