Just because I work from home doesn’t mean I want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Being a diabetic makes it more of a challenge, but I think I’ve found a tasty, diabetic friendly dish for the whole family with this one. Ground turkey (or really lean ground beef), leftover whole wheat pasta and veggies make a great meal, one that the kids have asked the recipe to be put in their cookbooks!
Speedy Supper Skillet
Serves 4
1 cup diced onion
16 ounces ground turkey
1 1/2 cups cooked whole wheat pasta
1 cup peas and carrots, frozen
16 ounces tomato sauce
1 tablespoon minced garlic
salt & pepper to taste
Cook the onions in a pan spray with butter-flavored cooking spray until soft, about 10 minutes. Add ground turkey and garlic, and cook until there’s no visible pink left in the meat. Add the remaining ingredients, stir well and let simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, or until everything is hot.
