Easy Weeknight Spaghetti

Easy Weeknight Spaghetti is a go-to recipe for my family for busy nights that is really affordable, simple to make and fills tummies made with ground turkey, tomato paste, tomato sauce, garlic, tomatoes, seasoning and additions you have on hand such as onion or bell pepper.

spaghetti, weeknight recipe, quick meal, family-friendly recipe, I think all of us moms have some sort of spaghetti with marinara sauce recipe that is really quick and super affordable and this is mine! Sometimes, I have fresh herbs in the garden, leftover onion or a spare bell pepper to also toss in so feel free to use whatever you have on hand to put extra flavors into this sauce.

Author: Amber
Recipe type: dinner
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground turkey, lean
  • 24 ounce can tomato sauce ( we like to buy the Hunts Traditional Pasta Sauce)
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 6 ounce can tomato paste
  • 10 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • ½ tablespoon Italian medley seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 pound spaghetti, thin
  • bell pepper, chopped (optional)
  • ½ onion, chopped (optional)
  • parsley (optional)
Instructions
  1. Fill a pot with water and bring to a boil.
  2. As the water is coming to a boil, add ground turkey to a separate pan and cook until browned. You can also add in some chopped bell pepper or onion at this point. Add salt and pepper to taste and the Italian medley seasoning.
  3. As the water is coming to a boil and the ground turkey is cooking, mince the garlic cloves and open the cans.
  4. Move the ground turkey to one side, drizzle a teaspoon of olive oil in other side of pan and add the minced garlic. Cook until fragrant (about 1 minute) and mix it in with the meat. Add the diced tomatoes, tomato pasta and tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer and cover while the pasta finishes cooking.
  5. Once the pot of water is at a boil, add the pasta noodles and cook according to packaged directions. Drain.
  6. Serve spaghetti with a heaping pile of pasta, a scoop of sauce and top with parsley or cheese if you would like.

#yum #dessert #foodie #feedme #chocolate #recipe #dessertlover #peanutbutter #delish 
INGREDIENTS:

12 ounces dark chocolate, (chips or bar)

1 cup peanut butter baking chips

1/4 cup peanuts, (chopped )

INSTRUCTIONS:

Chop peanuts. If using a chocolate bar instead of chocolate chips, chop into pieces.

Place parchment paper onto a baking sheet.

Melt the chocolate and peanut butter in separate microwavable safe bowls or glasses. I like to use large coffee mugs. Melt in 30 seconds increments, stir between each until both are melted.

Pour the melted dark chocolate onto the parchment covered baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate to 1/4 inch thickness.

Use a spoon to place the melted peanut butter chips on top in 4 lines.

Immediately take a knife or skewer to create the swirl pattern with the peanut butter.

Sprinkle chopped peanuts over top.

Chill for 15 minutes, break into 16 pieces and serve.
