Turkey, Tomato & Zucchini Pasta Recipe – 30 Minute Meal

October 6, 2013

Here’s a pretty healthy meal that can be made quickly at home. I actually made this a few weeks ago but am only taking the time to blog about it now.

Ingredients (Serves 2)

Two servings of pasta – any type works – I used spaghetti (lol, you figure out how much you think two servings is)
1/2 pack of ground turkey
2 roma tomatoes
1 zucchini
Minced Garlic (I love garlic!)
Mozzarella – as desired
Olive oil
Seasonings like salt, pepper, basil, oregano.

The best way to keep this under 30 minutes is to multi-task.

Start boiling your water for the pasta right away as that will take the longest. Liberally salt the water else the pasta won’t absorb it.
Start chopping up the tomatoes and zucchini into medium sized pieces. You can chop them whatever size you want depending how lazy you are or not lazy. Haha 🙂
Heat up the pan and then add some oil
Stir up the garlic but make sure you don’t it burn
Start cooking the turkey as this will take long and you want to make sure it’s cooked.
You can season this while you cook
Just throw whatever seasoning you’d like (I know, helpful right?)
You should be boiling the pasta by now.
Once the turkey is close to being done – toss in the veggies and cook
Cook until veggies are tender and crisp
And hopefully your pasta is also done now.
Put pasta on the plate, top with turkey + veggies, add some mozzarella, and cracked black pepper.

Done. Easy. Enjoy!
