INGREDIENTS
1.25 oz chickpea pasta elbows
2 oz ground turkey
0.5 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
0.75 oz sharp cheddar cheese
1 large egg
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp onion powder
0.5 tsp olive oil
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin with the olive oil.
Boil the chickpea pasta in salted water until al dente, then drain well.
Sauté the ground turkey in a pan over medium heat until fully cooked and lightly browned.
Finely chop the baby spinach into small ribbons.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Fold the cooked pasta, browned turkey, chopped spinach, and shredded cheddar cheese into the yogurt mixture until well combined.
Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups, pressing down slightly with a spoon.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until the bites are firm and the tops have developed a beautiful golden color.
Let the bites cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing to serve.
