Servings: 6
Cost: $16.94, $2.82 per Serving
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground turkey
- 2 carrots peeled and diced
- ½ onion diced
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- (2) 15 oz. cans crushed tomatoes
- (1) 15 oz. can tomato sauce
- 3 large zucchini spiralized
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Place the ground turkey in a 6-quart slow cooker. Break it into large chunks.
- Add the diced carrots, diced onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Stir gently to combine.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours.
- Remove the lid and use a spoon or spatula to break the turkey into small crumbles. Stir everything together and continue cooking for 30 minutes.
- About 10 minutes before serving, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the spiralized zucchini and sauté for 2–3 minutes, just until slightly tender. Avoid overcooking so the zucchini noodles don't become watery.
- Divide the zucchini noodles among serving bowls. Spoon the turkey sauce over the top and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- If your zucchini releases excess moisture while cooking, drain it briefly before serving.
- You can substitute 93% lean ground turkey for the best flavor and texture.
- This sauce is also delicious served over cooked pasta, spaghetti squash, or rice if preferred.
