  • Prep 10 min
  • Total 25 min
  • Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
  • 1 cup uncooked wagon wheel pasta (2 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup thick & chunky salsa
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Dash of pepper
  • 2 medium stalks celery, thinly sliced (1 cup)
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped ( 3/4 cup)
  • 2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook turkey in oil 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink; drain.
  • 2
    Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until pasta is tender.

  • For a fun family presentation, substitute another pasta of the same size for the wagon wheels. Try shells, rotini or spirals.
  • Ground beef can be used instead of the ground turkey. If you don't use a very lean beef, omit the oil.
  • Use an heirloom variety of tomato or other variety to give this skillet dinner a little different look. Try an orange, yellow, green or purple tomato instead of traditional red.
