Ingrédients

8 oz dry pasta of choice (I used rigatoni)

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1 medium yellow onion (chopped)

3 large garlic cloves (minced)

1 lb ground turkey

1 24 oz jar marinara sauce (I used Rao's marinara sauce)

½ cup whole milk cottage cheese

Salt and pepper (to taste)

Fresh basil (for serving)

Fresh parmesan (for serving)

Instructions

Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

While pasta is cooking add oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add onion and saute for 5-6 minutes until fragrant and a bit translucent. Season with salt and pepper. Add garlic and saute 1-2 more minutes.

Add ground turkey to the skillet and cook, breaking apart meat with a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

While ground turkey is cooking, add marinara sauce and cottage cheese to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.

Once turkey is cooked, pour the sauce over the turkey mixture, add cooked pasta and stir to combine.

Add a scoop of pasta to a bowl or plate. Top with fresh parmesan and fresh basil, for serving.
