Creamy Baked Ziti with Golden Cheese Crust
Baked whole wheat ziti tossed in a savory turkey marinara and creamy ricotta, finished with a bubbly golden cheese crust.
INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup cooked whole wheat ziti
4.5 oz 93% lean ground turkey
0.5 cup tomato puree
2 tbsp part-skim ricotta cheese
0.5 oz shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.25 cup diced yellow onion
1 clove minced garlic
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat, add the ground turkey and diced yellow onion, breaking the meat apart with a spatula until browned and cooked through.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the tomato puree and add the fresh baby spinach, stirring until the spinach is wilted and the sauce is simmering.
Turn off the heat and fold in the cooked whole wheat ziti and part-skim ricotta cheese until the pasta is evenly coated and creamy.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese over the top of the pasta mixture.
Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and develops a beautiful bubbly golden crust.
