INGREDIENTS

1.5 oz chickpea ziti pasta

4 oz ground turkey

0.5 cup tomato puree

0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt

0.75 oz part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

1 cup fresh spinach

0.25 tsp sea salt

PREPARATION

• 1

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

• 2

  Cook the chickpea pasta in boiling salted water for 2 minutes less than the package instructions to ensure it remains firm during baking.

• 3

  In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced yellow onion and minced garlic in olive oil until fragrant and translucent.

• 4

  Add the ground turkey, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the skillet, breaking the meat apart with a spatula until fully browned.

• 5

  Pour in the tomato puree and add the fresh spinach, stirring constantly until the leaves are wilted and the sauce is heated through.

• 6

  Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the Greek yogurt and cooked pasta until the mixture is creamy and well combined.

• 7

  Transfer the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and parmesan evenly over the top.

• 8

  Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese is melted and develops a beautiful golden-brown crust.
