Creamy Baked Ziti with Golden Mozzarella Crust
Whole wheat ziti baked with lean ground turkey and spinach in a savory marinara, topped with a bubbly, golden mozzarella crust that pulls apart perfectly.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ground turkey (93% lean)
0.5 cup Cooked whole wheat ziti
0.5 cup Sugar-free marinara sauce
2 tbsp Part-skim ricotta cheese
1 oz Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 cup Fresh baby spinach
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and brown the ground turkey with minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and oregano until cooked through.
Stir in the fresh baby spinach until wilted, then add the sugar-free marinara sauce and simmer for 2 minutes.
In a small bowl, lightly whip the ricotta cheese until smooth and creamy.
Toss the cooked whole wheat ziti with the meat sauce and dollop in the ricotta, swirling gently to create creamy pockets.
Transfer the mixture to a small baking dish and top evenly with the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and develops a beautiful golden-brown crust.
