Healthier baked ziti with ground turkey, low-fat sour cream, and extra veggies for a comforting twist.
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ziti pasta
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 2 (26 ounce) jars spaghetti sauce
  • 1 carrot, chopped
  • 6 ounces provolone cheese, sliced
  • 1.5 cups reduced-fat sour cream
  • 6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • 1. Boil a large pot of gently salted water. 2. Add ziti pasta and cook until al dente, around 8 minutes. 3. Drain the pasta.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and ground turkey until the onion is translucent and the turkey is cooked through, approximately 7 minutes. Add spaghetti sauce and carrot, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Assemble the layers in the baking dish as follows: half the ziti, Provolone cheese, sour cream, half of the sauce mixture, remaining ziti, mozzarella cheese, and the rest of the sauce mixture. Finish by sprinkling grated Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Bake in a hot oven until the cheeses are melted, roughly 30 minutes.
