INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
2 ounces Whole Wheat Penne
1/2 cup Tomato-based Vegetable Marinara
1/2 cup diced Zucchini
1/2 cup diced Bell Pepper
1/4 cup diced Onion
1 clove Garlic, minced

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook while breaking it up with a spatula until it is no longer pink.
Mix in the diced zucchini and bell pepper. Sauté the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Pour in the tomato-based vegetable marinara and add the dried basil and oregano blend. Stir well and let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Combine the cooked whole wheat penne with the turkey and vegetable sauce. Toss gently to ensure the pasta is evenly coated.
