Hey guys,
Just wanted to share a simple thing I often find myself cooking up for dinner. You can make it as healthy as you want, or even bend it towards the unhealthier side (let's hope you don't!).
You'll need a package of
ground turkey. There's really no set amount, just estimate how much turkey you'd like to see mixed in with your pasta.
One medium sized
yellow onion, chopped. Again, use as much onion as you want.
One small carton of
white "button" mushrooms. Wash and slice thinly.
Put a large pot of water on to boil in pick out your favorite whole-grain pasta. I like elbows for this or spaghetti broken in half.
Put a bit of olive or canola oil in a large skillet and slowly cook the mushrooms and onions until tender.
Salt and
pepper to taste during this step.
Then, add in the ground turkey and cook until fully browned.
You can use fresh garlic in this recipe but I prefer to use a healthy dose of
garlic powder. Add
chicken stock or water + chicken bouillon to make a "sauce" to coat the noodles that you will be mixing it.
Once the noodles are tender, drain them and mix them into the turkey, onion, and mushroom mixture.
Adjust the salt, garlic, and fat content to your liking.
I like green beans on the side with the dish. Hope you guys like it!
