Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups leftover lean ground turkey bolognese sauce

  • 2.5 cups leftover cooked lentil pasta

  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach

  • 1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
  • 1

    Bring 2 cups of water to a boil on the stovetop or in a kettle.

  • 2

    Pour the boiling water into a high-quality insulated food thermos, seal the lid tightly, and let it sit for 5 minutes to preheat the interior stainless steel.

  • 3

    While the thermos preheats, place 1.5 cups of leftover lean ground turkey bolognese sauce and 2.5 cups of leftover cooked lentil pasta into a small saucepan over medium-low heat.

  • 4

    Gently stir the pasta and sauce together, adding 1 tablespoon of fresh water if needed to prevent sticking, and heat for 5 to 6 minutes until steaming hot (reaching an internal temperature of at least 165°F).

  • 5

    Thoroughly wash and pat dry 2 cups of fresh baby spinach.

  • 6

    Carefully pour the hot water out of the preheated thermos and wipe the inside dry with a clean paper towel.

  • 7

    Place the 2 cups of dry, fresh baby spinach directly into the bottom of the warm thermos; the residual heat will perfectly wilt the greens by lunchtime without making them soggy.

  • 8

    Spoon the steaming hot bolognese and lentil pasta mixture directly on top of the spinach layer inside the thermos.

  • 9

    Sprinkle 1 tbsp of grated parmesan cheese over the top of the pasta, then immediately seal the thermos lid tightly to lock in the heat for transport.
