INSTRUCTIONS

Add your ground turkey (or beef) to a large skillet on the stovetop. Use a spatula to crumble the meat. Cook on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned. 

  • Stir in salt, pepper, , oregano, , and minced garlic. Saute for one more minute so garlic is golden in color. Remove turkey and garlic from pan and set aside.

  • Reduce heat to medium. Add the oil to skillet with the zucchini, onion, carrots, mushrooms , and bell pepper. Sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, parsley, and pepper. Stir. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and peppers and zucchini are close to tender, about 5 to 10 minutes.

  • Return the cooked ground turkey and garlic to the skillet. Add the tomato sauce , tomato paste, and fresh spinach. Add water if the sauce seems too thick Stir. Cover and simmer everything for 5 to 10 minutes or until it's all warmed through and spinach is wilted.
