- In a large pot, boil salted water and cook the whole grain pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Notes
Feel free to swap the turkey for ground chicken or plant-based minced meat if you're looking for a vegetarian option.
Don't hesitate to get creative with your choice of vegetables; zucchini, bell peppers, or even spinach work beautifully in this dish.
For storage, keep the yogurt separate to avoid sogginess; this bento box can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Enjoy your healthy meal prep!
