Baked Ziti with Ricotta and Sausage
Al dente chickpea ziti tossed with savory turkey sausage and creamy ricotta, baked under a layer of bubbly mozzarella for a comforting, protein-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz dry chickpea ziti pasta
4 oz lean ground turkey sausage
0.5 cup marinara sauce
0.25 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.5 oz shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.13 tsp sea salt
0.13 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Boil chickpea pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than package directions for al dente.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook turkey sausage in olive oil until browned and crumbled.
Stir in spinach until wilted, then add marinara, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Combine cooked pasta with the sauce mixture and dollop in the ricotta cheese, stirring gently to create creamy pockets.
Transfer to a small baking dish and top with shredded mozzarella.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
