Ingredients

• 1 pound turkey ground
• 1 tbs Himalayan salt
• 1 tsp pepper add more to taste
• 1 each onion large small diced
• 2 tbs garlic minced
• 1 tsp Thyme
• 1 tsp oregano
• 2 tbs olive oil
• 2 cups organic diced tomatoes
• 2 medium zucchinis

Instructions

• Saute the onion in olive oil for 3 minutes in medium heat. Make sure not to burn the onions(the sweetness of your sauce will come from this caramelization).
• Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the Turkey and season with salt and pepper, cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the tomato and simmer in low heat for 10 minutes Season with oregano and thyme.
• Keep the sauce in low while you work with the Zucchini and the Spiralizer.
• Set your Spiralizer on work table. Wash your zucchini and cute the ends. Set the zucchini in the machine and start turning the handle until the spaghetti starts rolling out. Make sure you don't press the handle too hard.
• Add your Zucchini to your Marinara sauce and cook for 1 minute in medium heat making sure it does not over cook, keeping the zucchini noodles crunchy. You can also serve directly to the plate and add the sauce over it without cooking them/..
