PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  Place the cherry tomatoes and minced garlic on a small baking sheet, drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil, and roast for 15 minutes until the tomatoes are blistered and soft.

• 3

  While the tomatoes roast, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat penne according to the package instructions until it reaches an al dente texture.

• 4

  In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground turkey and season with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 5

  Cook the turkey, breaking it up with a spatula, until it is thoroughly browned and no longer pink.

  Drain the cooked pasta, reserving about 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water.

• 7

  Add the roasted tomatoes and their juices, the cooked penne, and the reserved pasta water into the skillet with the turkey.

  Toss everything together over low heat for 1 minute to allow the flavors to meld and the tomato juices to coat the pasta.
