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 chickpea ziti for 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest for al dente; drain and set aside.

• 3

  In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until the onion is translucent.

• 4

  Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook until fully browned.

• 5

  Stir in the fresh baby spinach and cook until just wilted, then add the tomato puree, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 6

  Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

• 7

  Fold the cooked ziti into the sauce until every noodle is well-coated.

• 8

  Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top evenly with shredded mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

• 9

  Bake for 10-12 minutes, then broil for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
