INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Ziti
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Tomato Sauce
1/3 cup diced Zucchini
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup diced Onion
1 Garlic clove
Dried Basil and Oregano to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and minced garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Stir in the diced zucchini and fresh spinach, allowing them to wilt slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the low-sodium tomato sauce and sprinkle in dried basil and oregano to taste. Let the mixture simmer for another 3 minutes.
Combine the cooked whole wheat ziti with the turkey and veggie sauce in a baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
