Creamy Butternut Squash Cheesy Pasta Bake with Lean Ground Turkey and Spinach
A comforting, nutrient-packed pasta bake featuring lean ground turkey, tender whole wheat pasta enveloped in a creamy butternut squash sauce, vibrant spinach, and a crispy layer of melted cheddar cheese that makes every bite a delightful blend of savory and slightly sweet flavors.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
0.5 cup Pureed Butternut Squash
1 cup Spinach
1 oz Cheddar Cheese
0.25 cup Low-Fat Milk
0.25 medium Onion
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the finely chopped onion and minced garlic using a light spray of olive oil until fragrant and translucent.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Mix in the pureed butternut squash and low-fat milk with the turkey. Allow the mixture to simmer for a couple of minutes to blend the flavors.
Stir in the spinach and cooked pasta, ensuring the pasta is well coated with the creamy squash-turkey sauce.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
