Savor a comforting bowl of whole wheat pasta tossed in a light, creamy sauce paired with crispy turkey bacon and fresh baby spinach. This dish balances the smokiness from the bacon with the tanginess of nonfat Greek yogurt and low‐fat cottage cheese for a satisfying meal that fits perfectly within your nutritional targets.
INGREDIENTS
2 ounces whole wheat pasta (dry)
4 slices turkey bacon
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 cup baby spinach
1 clove garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, place the turkey bacon in a cold non-stick skillet. Cook over medium heat until crispy, turning as needed. Once done, chop the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, combine nonfat Greek yogurt, low-fat cottage cheese, and minced garlic. Mix until smooth, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Return the drained pasta to its pot or a serving bowl. Stir in the creamy yogurt-cottage cheese mixture until the pasta is evenly coated.
Gently fold in the crispy turkey bacon and fresh baby spinach, allowing the residual heat from the pasta to slightly wilt the spinach without overcooking.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
