Ground turkey meat sauce is a lean meat sauce made with ground turkey meat instead of ground beef. Serve this healthy and hearty meat sauce with your favorite pasta!
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add the onion, tomato, basil, and garlic and saute until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground turkey, Italian seasoning, and oregano. Cook and stir until turkey is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
Stir in the tomato sauce then bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Stir in the tomato paste. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional minute or two.
Serve over your favorite pasta and enjoy! Or store in an air-tight container for up to one week. You can also freeze this sauce in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
Notes
The sauce tastes best the next day! This makes it great for making ahead of time.
