Creamy Baked Ziti with Golden Mozzarella Crust
Al dente chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety cottage cheese marinara with lean turkey and finished with a bubbly, golden mozzarella crust.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz chickpea ziti pasta
4 oz ground turkey
0.5 cup low-fat cottage cheese
0.5 cup marinara sauce
0.5 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than the package directions until slightly firm.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground turkey with garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper until fully cooked.
Stir in the baby spinach until wilted, then remove from heat.
In a blender or food processor, pulse the cottage cheese until smooth and creamy.
Combine the cooked pasta, turkey mixture, blended cottage cheese, and marinara sauce in a bowl.
Transfer the mixture to a small baking dish and top evenly with shredded mozzarella.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the edges are bubbling and golden.
