CREAMY GROUND TURKEY, SPINACH AND PEA PASTA
This dish is a great way to feed a group of people and make a pound of meat stretch. I also sneak in veggies like spinach and peas for picky eaters. Rich, creamy and filling, this pasta is perfect for busy weeknights or special enough for entertaining.

Steps:
- Bring a large stock pot of salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil along with the ground turkey and cook, breaking up the turkey with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium low and add the garlic and thyme; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Next, add the flour and stir to coat. If the skillet looks too dry, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons olive oil. Cook, stirring, until it smells nutty, about 2 minutes. Deglaze the skillet with the vermouth or white wine and cook, scraping up the browned bits with the wooden spoon, until the liquid evaporates. Next, add the milk and 1 cup Parmesan, liberally season with salt and pepper then simmer on low heat until the sauce thickens, 8 to 10 minutes.
- At this point drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook per the package directions until al dente.
- Five minutes before the pasta is ready, add the spinach and peas to the sauce and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Taste for seasoning; add more salt and pepper, if necessary. Add the pasta, along with 3/4 to 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, directly to the skillet and stir until the sauce is thick and creamy, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Serve the pasta in shallow bowls, then sprinkle with pepper and extra Parmesan.
TURKEY AND SPINACH CURRY
With the coconut milk, the preroasted turkey and the fresh spinach, there's plenty of flavor in this little stew. Plenty of ease, too; the whole thing (including the rice you probably want to serve it with, though I could imagine it over leftover stuffing) takes less than a half hour, not much longer than sandwiches.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; add onion, garlic and ginger and cook until they begin to soften, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add cumin, coriander, turmeric and cayenne and cook, stirring, until spices are fragrant, about another minute.
- Add tomatoes and their juices and coconut milk and sprinkle with salt and pepper; bring mixture to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Simmer for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until tomatoes break down.
- Add spinach and turkey to pan and continue to cook until spinach wilts and turkey is warmed through, another 3 to 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning, garnish with cilantro and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 2 minutes. Add ground turkey and cook 5 to 7 minutes more, stirring to break up any large chunks of meat. Stir in tomato sauce, mushrooms, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and garlic powder. Simmer for 2 minutes and season to taste.
- Combine spinach, ricotta, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
- To assemble, arrange 3 noodles lengthwise in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread with 1/3 the ricotta mixture, 1/3 of the turkey mixture, and 1/3 of the mozzarella. Repeat layers, ending with remaining mozzarella. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
