Lean Turkey and Lentil Bolognese with Zucchini Noodles
Savor a nutritious twist on a classic bolognese with lean turkey, hearty lentils, and fresh zucchini noodles. This dish packs a light yet satisfying profile, blending the robustness of garden vegetables with tender turkey and earthy lentils, all simmered in a rich tomato base infused with aromatic garlic and Italian herbs.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Cooked Green Lentils
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1/2 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
1 small Carrot, diced
1/4 medium Onion, diced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the diced onion and carrot. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the lean ground turkey, breaking it apart, and sauté until it is browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Mix in the cooked lentils and canned diced tomatoes. Simmer the mixture on low heat for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the zucchini. Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet during the last 1-2 minutes of simmering, allowing them to warm while retaining a slight crunch.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary before serving.
