INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
0.75 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Diced Fresh Tomatoes
0.25 cup Fresh Basil, chopped
0.5 cup Diced Zucchini
0.5 cup Diced Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup Diced Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add the diced red onion, zucchini, and red bell pepper. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until slightly softened. Transfer the vegetables to a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10 minutes to enhance their flavor.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In the same skillet, cook the lean ground turkey over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks.
Once the turkey is cooked, stir in the diced fresh tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes to meld the flavors.
Mix the roasted vegetables into the turkey and tomato sauce, then fold in the cooked pasta.
Finish by stirring in the chopped fresh basil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm and enjoy this balanced, flavorful meal.
