Creamy Baked Ziti with Golden Mozzarella Crust
Whole wheat ziti and lean ground turkey baked in a velvety tomato-yogurt sauce, topped with a bubbly, golden mozzarella crust.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz whole wheat ziti
4 oz ground turkey
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.5 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cook the whole wheat ziti in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula until browned and cooked through.
Stir in the garlic powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper to season the meat.
Add the fresh baby spinach to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until the leaves are just wilted.
Turn off the heat and stir in the tomato puree and nonfat Greek yogurt, mixing thoroughly until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
Toss the cooked ziti into the skillet, ensuring every noodle is well-coated in the velvety sauce.
Level the pasta mixture with a spoon and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly across the top.
Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and forms a golden, bubbly crust.
