For the Meat

  • 2 lbs ground turkey
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon ground thyme
  • ½ teaspoon garlic granules

Instructions
 

  • Mince garlic, dice onion, chop bell pepper, chop mushrooms, chop tomatoes. Wash potatoes, pat dry, and set all aside.
  • In a medium-sized sauce pan add 1 tablespoons olive oil and set to low-medium heat (level 3) Add garlic, onion, tomatoes, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook for 30 minutes with lid on before adding additional ingredients.
  • Meanwhile, heat convection or conventional oven to 400 degrees F. Place potatoes on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and spray potatoes with olive oil. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic granules.
  • Cook the turkey in a separate skillet: On low-medium heat (level 3) add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 Lbs. ground turkey. Season with rosemary, thyme, garlic granules, sea salt, pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes before turning heat down to low (level 1) to cook for another 10 minutes.
  • Return to the saucepan of tomato mixture to add vegetable broth and decrease temperature to low (level 1). Cook for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Once sauce is turned to low, bake fingerling potatoes for 30 minutes, turning them at the 15 minute mark.
  • After tomato mixture has finished cooking, use an emulsion blender or regular blender to partially blend sauce (I like it about ¾ of the way blended to still have chopped veggies for texture). Stir in cooked turkey to sauce.
  • To plate, place fingerling potatoes on a plate, pour tomato and turkey sauce over the top. Sprinkle grated cheese over the top and enjoy.
