4 oz chicken breast

1 oz whole wheat ziti

0.5 cup tomato puree

0.25 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt

0.75 oz shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup fresh baby spinach

1 tsp dried oregano

0.25 tsp sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish.

• 2

  Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat ziti for 2 minutes less than the package directions for al dente; drain and set aside.

• 3

  While pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced chicken breast until cooked through and lightly browned.

• 4

  Season the chicken with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano, then stir in the fresh baby spinach until just wilted.

• 5

  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the tomato puree and plain Greek yogurt until a smooth, creamy pink sauce forms.

• 6

  Combine the cooked pasta, sautéed chicken and spinach mixture, and the creamy tomato sauce in the baking dish, tossing until every noodle is well-coated.

• 7

  Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.

• 8

  Bake for 12-15 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese has formed a beautiful golden crust.
