Turkey and Spinach Stuffed Manicotti

Serving 2 (We are terrible with left overs)

1/4 lb ground turkey (save the rest and freeze for tacos or meatloaf)
1/4 yellow onion diced
1 garlic clove (or 1 frozen garlic cube from Trader Joe's)
A little bit of olive oil
1/4 of a 15 oz tub of ricotta cheese
2 big pinches of shredded Parmesan cheese
2 big pinches of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup chopped spinach
1 tsp dried parsley flakes
1 jar tomato sauce (your favorite)
6 Manicotti noodles
Salt and Pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Start boiling water
Heat olive oil in skillet and add turkey, onion, salt and pepper. Add garlic when there is a minute or two left on turkey. Cook until turkey is done and take off of heat to cool.

In a separate bowl, combine cheeses, salt, pepper, spinach and parsley. Add cooled turkey mixture to cheese mixture.

Water should be boiling by this point. Cook pasta for 7 minutes.

Line a 9 x 13 glass dish with foil for easy clean up. Put a little bit of tomato sauce at the bottom then with a slotted spoon take out ready pasta and place in dish. Let cool for a minute. Gently stuff noodles with turkey cheese mixture and pour the remaining pasta sauce over the noodles. Top with mozzarella cheese.

Cook for 30-35 minutes.


Serve with salad.
