Whole Wheat Spaghetti with Sauteed Vegetables




1 1lb 7.25 oz. Jar Marinara Sauce (I used Prego Light Smart)
10 oz. Whole Wheat Spaghetti Noodles
20 oz. Lean Ground Turkey
1 Green Pepper, chopped
1/2 Onion, chopped
1 Small Package of Shiitake Mushrooms, sliced
Dash of Salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tablespoon olive oil
cooking spray

Heat olive oil in skillet on medium-high. Saute green pepper, onion and mushrooms for about 4-5 minutes. Once vegetables are softened set aside. Spray skillet with cooking spray and brown the ground turkey. Add salt, pepper and garlic powder. Once meat is cooked through add marinara sauce and basil. Cook spaghetti noodles according to directions on package.

Makes 5 servings. Each serving is 1/2 cup noodles, 3/4 cup sauce and pile on the veggies! Approximately 375 calories per serving.

Btw...Shiitake mushrooms are really good for you! They are known to have antiviral and anticancer effects.
