INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 oz Whole Wheat Ziti (dry)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 cup Chopped Onion
1 clove Minced Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Dried Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook the whole wheat ziti according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and dried basil.
Stir in the diced tomatoes and fresh spinach. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes until the spinach wilts.
Combine the cooked ziti with the turkey and vegetable mixture. Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish.
Dollop the low-fat ricotta cheese on top and lightly stir it in to create a creamy consistency throughout the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Remove from the oven and serve hot.
