PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  In a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and brown the ground turkey with minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper until fully cooked.

• 4

  Stir the fresh baby spinach into the turkey until it is just wilted, then pour in the marinara sauce and dried oregano.

• 5

  Add the cooked ziti to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the sauce.

  Dollop the ricotta cheese over the pasta mixture and gently swirl it in, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly across the top.

  Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
