Home Made Spaghetti Delight Directions:
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant. Add the lean ground turkey and cook until browned.
Incorporate the grated carrot, diced zucchini, and bell pepper into the turkey mixture. Sauté until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Allow the flavors to meld together over medium heat, creating a savory tomato sauce.
Add the cooked whole wheat spaghetti to the turkey bolognese sauce. Gently toss until the pasta is evenly coated with the flavorful sauce. Allow the dish to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Sprinkle freshly chopped basil leaves over the spaghetti for a burst of freshness. Optionally, top with grated Parmesan cheese for added richness.
