Can I be honest with you? I’m gonna sound a bit vain, but I’m totally in love with this pasta dish I made. I think I ate it for three days straight…yep…it was that good. I’ve been seeing a lot about the clean eating movement and did some quick research and realized I pretty much already do it by cooking mostly from scratch. YEAH for me. So if it’s one of your goals then this recipe will be perfect for you. If not, you will still totally love it too! Clean Eating: Quick & Healthy Baked Ziti is really just comfort food!

So, you might have noticed that there really isn’t ziti in my bowl. It’s curly pasta, but it just doesn’t have the same ring to it has baked ziti does. I’ve made this with ziti and planned to make it for you that way…BUT….the store was out of my gluten free ziti, so I grabbed these noodles instead. They are my favorite and I stock up on them from amazon and buy it in bulk to keep on hand.
This quick and healthy baked ziti is made with lean ground turkey, Italian seasonings and no refined sugar. It's a clean eating Italian dinner that's pure comfort food!

What’s the serving size, and how many servings does this make? Thanks!
Makes about 8 servings. 🙂
I’ve never noticed herb goat cheese. I’ll look but if all I can find is plain do you have any suggestions of what to add to keep the right flavour?
I would just add a tsp or so of an Italian herb blend if you can’t find the herb goat cheese. I bet you can find it though. 🙂
This looks yummy! Thanks for the recipe!
Oooh, I especially love the addition of the goat cheese! I’ve never added anything like that to my pasta dishes, but I think that would be a welcome change. Looks great!
If you like goat cheese Brandie, then you will love this! 🙂
So delicious healthy and hearty all at the same time. I’m impressed!
Thanks Melissa!
Oh, I love pasta! This recipe looks so good!
Great idea! This looks yummy! And bring on the goat cheese!
I have all this stuff on hand and just picked up a box of quinoa pasta. Hoping to make this sometime this week!
You had me at goat cheese.
LOL Stephie….goat cheese is one of my favs!

Thanks Pamela…let me know what you think if you give it a try!
Basil, goat cheese and pasta? YUM! You pretty much just combined my top 3 food loves ever 🙂
