INGREDIENTS
3 oz Lean Ground Turkey (85g)
1 cup Whole Wheat Ziti (140g, cooked)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
1 cup Fresh Spinach (30g)
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella (28g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (4.5g)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Dried Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a medium skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through, breaking it up into crumbles, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the marinara sauce and allow it to simmer with the turkey for 2-3 minutes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked whole wheat ziti, sautéed turkey and sauce mixture, and fresh spinach. Mix until the spinach wilts slightly.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella evenly on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, and serve warm.
