Good basic recipe. I used 1/2 lb chopped tempeh and 4 oz mushrooms instead of the turkey, and 1/2 glass white wine, a 28-oz can of crushed tomatoes and a couple of tbsp of fresh basil and rosemary instead of the sauce. Garnished w/ chopped olives.

Quick and easy. I made it with 93% lean ground turkey and Fiber Gourmet pasta to lower calories and increase the fiber content. I added about four ounces of sliced mushrooms. I made this dish with Hunt's sauce and it definitely needed additional flavor. I added oregano and other Italian seasonings, as well as additional garlic. It was good but still needs tweaking. But it's worth the effort for an easy spaghetti type dish. I'll post my version when I am satisfied. Thanks for sharing this.

I have used this as the basis of my spag. recipe. I love that it is not dirtying more dishes than necessary. Now for my changes: my hubby will not eat green peppers or onions that he can see, so I omit the green pepper and use onion powder. I prefer ground beef. The biggest change I made was to substitute beef broth for some of the water to both boost the nutrition and add flavor. It's a super recipe! Thanks for posting.
