Lean and Green Palmini Spaghetti Recipe
Instructions
- Heat a large pot over medium heat and add the ground turkey. Cook until fully browned.
- Once the turkey is cooked, add the ingredients for the 8 oz. “sauce” (such as chopped tomatoes, tomato sauce, and/or veggies) and spices to the pot. Let simmer for at least 20 minutes, occasionally stirring, to allow the flavors to develop.
- While the sauce simmers, prepare the Palmini by soaking it in almond milk for 20 minutes or rinsing it under water for 5 minutes. This will help to neutralize the natural flavors.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the Palmini. Boil for 5-10 minutes, depending on your desired texture (al dente or softer).
- Once cooked, drain the Palmini and pat it dry to remove any excess water.
- Add the Palmini to the sauce and let simmer on low heat for an additional 10 minutes.
- Serve warm and top with grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Enjoy!
