1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (28g)

Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Cook whole wheat ziti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown lean ground beef until fully cooked; break it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Mix in marinara sauce with the browned beef and let simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
Combine the cooked pasta with the beef and marinara mixture in an oven-safe dish.
Sprinkle low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
