INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Spaghetti
4 slices Turkey Bacon
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
PREPARATION
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat spaghetti. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey bacon slices and cook until they become crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.
In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the minced garlic and diced onion until translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook until just wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and incorporate the low-fat cottage cheese into the skillet, stirring gently to create a creamy, slightly warm sauce. If needed, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to achieve desired consistency.
Toss the drained spaghetti into the sauce, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated.
Roughly chop or crumble the crispy turkey bacon and mix it into the pasta.
Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately.
