Ingredients
-
1lb lean ground turkey
1 medium red onion chopped
1 large bell pepper chopped
4 celery sticks chopped
1 head of broccoli chopped
1/2 head of cauliflower chopped
1 can reduced sodium chopped tomatoes
1 regular jar of red pasta sauce
1 cup of low fat shredded cheese
4 tbsp grated parmasan
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Directions
First pour red sauce and tomatoes in to a large pot or wok over medium-high heat.
Whilst the sauce heats up, begin preparing all veg, (start with the cauliflower, and end with the bell pepper) apart from the onion.
As you complete chopping each veg type, throw it in the simmering sauce and give it a stir. This way the veg begins cooking in the sauce, in stages.
Preheat oven to 375f
Once all the veg is simmering in the sauce, chop the red onion. Then cook the ground turkey and onion together in a separate skillet until the turkey turns white and the onion is soft. Then add to the veg & sauce and season with cayenne and black pepper.
Once the veg, meat and sauce is mixed well, pour 1/2 in to a large casserole dish, then sprinkle half the parmasan over it. Now pour the rest evenly across the top and sprinkle the rest of the parmasan. Finally, sprinkle the low fat shredded cheese evenly across the top and cover the dish with a lid or foil.
Bake in the oven 25 mins, then remove the cover and broil for a couple of minutes until the cheese is golden/crispy.
Let stand for 5 minutes out of the oven, then serve.
