Turkey Arrabbiata with Whole Grain Pasta


This is what happens when Nupoora and Katie get hangry (Angry + Hungry = Hangry) and there is no food in the house. 

Level: Really Easy - This isn't really a recipe; this is a cry of desperation. 
Taste: Good!

Ingredients: 
  • 1 Box of whole wheat pasta
  • 1 Jar of Trader Joe's Arrabbiata Sauce
  • 1 package of Extra lean ground turkey (~1 lb?)
  • 1 Tsp chili flakes
  • 1 Tsp garlic salt
  • 1 Tsp ground pepper


1) Cook the pasta (I'm assuming you know how to boil water. If you don't, click here).

2) Heat the pan on medium-high with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray. Once the pan is hot, drop in the ground turkey and then liberally toss in all of the seasonings. Extra lean turkey needs to be seasoned into submission or it will taste like cardboard. Let the turkey cook on one side for a few minutes and then start breaking it up with a spatula. Continue flipping and re-seasoning the turkey until it is fully cooked. 

3) If you're feeling particularly energetic, you can heat the sauce in a separate pan on medium-low heat while the pasta & turkey cook. 

4) Mix the extravaganza together and enjoy.
