Fettuccine Bolognese (Serves 4)

Another recipe we found off of this website (she has lots of great kid-friendly recipes!)

1 Medium Onion, diced
2 Garlic Cloves, minced
1 lb Lean Ground Turkey Meat
1 Tsp Kosher Salt
1 Large Carrot, grated
16 oz Can Chopped Tomatoes with juice
1 Tbsp Italian Herbs
3 Tbsps Tomato Paste
1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese
1 Pkg Fettuccine, cut in half

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat, add onions and sauté for 4 minutes.

Add garlic and sauté for another minute.

Add ground lean turkey meat and salt and continue to cook for 4 minutes or until cooked through, using a wooden spoon to break apart the meat and stirring continuously.

Add carrots, chopped tomatoes (with its juice), Italian herbs and tomato paste and stir to combine.

Partially cover with lid and cook for 20 minutes.

Add Parmesan cheese and stir to combine.

Cook for an additional 20 minutes uncovered, until the mixture thickens and the liquid reduces.

During the last 20 minutes of cooking the sauce, bring a pot of water to a boil, cook noodles according to package directions and drain.

Serve Bolognese sauce over cooked noodles.

* Sauce can be frozen for up to 3 months in a sealed container
