Directions

Prep 5 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Spiralize the zucchini into noodles (or use a peeler to make ribbons) and set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat a large saucepan over medium-high. Add half of the olive oil and the chopped onion. Cook until translucent, 2–3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring, until browned, 4–5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until no longer pink, 6–10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the halved tomatoes and tomato paste, breaking up the tomatoes with a spoon. Season with salt and pepper to taste and simmer gently for 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add remaining olive oil and zucchini noodles, and sauté, tossing constantly, until just tender, 2–3 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain excess liquid.

  7. 7

    Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the chopped basil. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

  8. 8

    Divide zucchini noodles among bowls and top with the meat and mushroom tomato sauce.
