Spaghetti With Turkey Meat Sauce

Scrumptious, fresh-as-you-like meat sauce served over spaghetti is one of the easiest American favorites to master. If you’re able to make just the right amount for the folks you’re serving, you can up your pasta game with this easy trick: cook your pasta until it’s not quite al dente, drain all but ½ cup of the pasta cooking water and stir in your sauce to cook with the pasta for the final minute or two. Your sauce will adhere better to the pasta for a fuller flavor experience all around.

Money-Saving Tip: This sauce is meat-heavy. If you’re feeding a big crowd or working to make the portions of meat in your diet smaller, don’t be afraid to double the sauce ingredients except for the meat to make it go further.

Tomato Lovers: Can’t get enough of tomatoes? Give that tomato flavor a super boost by adding a few tablespoons of tomato paste after you drain the meat.
