Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb ground white turkey breast
1 cup chopped onion
2 large garlic cloves, minced
2 fresh jalapeño chile peppers, seeded, chopped
1 qt Home-Style Tomato Sauce, (see recipe)
2 tsp crushed dried oregano
2 tsp good-quality chili powder - (to 3)
1 cup dry red wine
= (or water)
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 lb penne pasta
4 oz shredded low fat cheddar cheese
Directions
Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet. Crumble the
ground turkey into the skillet and brown, stirring occasionally, for 10
minutes. Using a slotted spoon to drain away all fat, transfer browned
turkey meat to a dish and set aside.
Wipe out skillet and add remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Place over
low heat and add onion, garlic, and chile pepper. Sauté, stirring
occasionally, until onion is limp, about 5 minutes.
Stir in reserved tomato sauce, oregano, chili powder, wine, parsley, and
browned turkey meat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce flavors
blend, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions to al dente. Drain
pasta and divide equally between two 8-inch square foil baking pans.
Spoon sauce equally over the pasta and top each with half of the shredded
cheese. Cover and seal with aluminum foil. Label and date. Freeze until
firm.
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake the dish, covered,
until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling, about 35 to 45 minutes.

Weight loss systemsThe Atkins’ Diet Originating way back in the 1960s, the atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Popular with many famous celebrities, it enables fat reduction but still allows you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, such as bacon and butter. On the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. Because of this, it is known as a high protein, low carb, nutrition and weightloss system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet invented by Dr. arthur agatston, a cardiologist from miami, usa, which encourages that one should consume "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston invented his weight loss regime for people who have cardiac problems, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific research on other weight loss systems. Examples of good foods include, lean beef, turkey bacon, shrimp, ricotta cheese, pistachios, eggs and certain vegetables, like black beans, broccoli and spinach. |
