INGREDIENTS

1.5 oz Chickpea ziti

4 oz Ground turkey

0.5 cup Marinara sauce

2 tbsp Part-skim ricotta cheese

0.75 oz Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 cup Fresh baby spinach

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

0.25 tsp Dried oregano

0.13 tsp Sea salt

0.13 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

• 2

  Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea ziti for 2 minutes less than the package instructions to keep it al dente.

• 3

  While the pasta cooks, brown the ground turkey in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until fully cooked through.

• 4

  Add the fresh baby spinach, garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper to the skillet, stirring until the spinach is just wilted.

• 5

  Lower the heat and stir in the marinara sauce and ricotta cheese until the mixture is creamy and well-combined.

• 6

  Drain the pasta and fold it into the skillet mixture, ensuring every piece is coated in the sauce.

• 7

  Transfer the ziti to a small oven-safe baking dish and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the top.

• 8

  Bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and develops a golden-brown crust.
