Ingredients:

-1 lb Italian ground turkey

-1 medium onion, diced

-2 cloves garlic

-1 medium zucchini, chopped

-2 tsp italian seasoning

-1 tsp oregano

-1 jar organic marinara

-1 can petite diced tomatoes Italian style

-4 c beef broth

-7 oz (dry) Barilla protein farfalle or other protein pasta of choice (it was half a box for me.)

-2 c chopped fresh spinach

-1 c 2% cottage cheese

-1/2 c shredded light mozzarella cheese (I use trader joes)

-1/2 c shredded parmesan

Fresh mozz and fresh basil for garnish if desired.

Instructions:

Saute meat, onions, garlic and zucchini until cooked through and tender. Add marinara, diced tomatoes, broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil.

Add Pasta and boil until al dente. ( I'd suggest under-cooking so that if the soup sits a bit before serving, the noodles don't overcook.)

Once pasta is cooked, add spinach and all cheeses. Mix until blended. Enjoy this with garnishes or without, it's so delicious!
