One hot, summer day, my oldest wanted to help make dinner 'for me'. He planned what he wanted to make, shopped for it, and the result was delicious! I am so pleased that he wants to learn to cook and show love through the meals we make for others.
Browning the ground turkey - most of the meals that call for ground beef anymore, we make with ground turkey. But you can use ground beef or pork, or sausage...
Whatever sounds good to you!
Our neighbor sent some basil over that very morning. And fresh basil makes everything better!
The final product! It was delicious!
Here's our kid-friendly recipe, in case you have kids who would like to cook 'for you'!
Spaghetti and Meat Sauce
1 lb ground turkey
1 jar favorite pasta sauce
Salt & Pepper
1 bunch basil leaves, chopped
12 oz spaghetti noodles, or favorite pasta
parmesan cheese
1. Brown your seasoned ground turkey, add pasta sauce and let simmer for 20-30 minutes. My son added a special ingredient to add more flavor (he peppered the ground turkey a little more than I would have).
2. Prepare your noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
3. Plate your pasta and sauce, however you love! Top with parmesan cheese. Serve!
4. Make sure your child cleans up the dishes, too... It's not a labor of love without the clean-up!!
