Spaghetti with Spicy Turkey Meat Sauce

#48

1 pound whole wheat spaghetti
2 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 pound ground turkey
salt and pepper
28 can diced tomatoes
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1/4 cup chopped parsley
2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

1. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the pasta according to the package directions until al dente; drain.
2. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat; add the onion and cook until softened, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Increase the heat to medium-high, crumble in the turkey, season with salt and black pepper and cook until the turkey is just no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 15 minutes. Stir in parsley and cheese.
3. Toss the pasta with the sauce. Serve immediately with more cheese.
