- ¾ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 handful spinach
- 1 zucchini large, diced

- ¼ cup chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat the chili olive oil and jalapeno olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Then, cook the ground turkey breast until it begins to brown. Drain and set aside.
- Add the zucchini to the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium-low and add the spinach, tomato sauce, all the dry seasonings, and tapioca flour. Stir well and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the ground turkey breast, chicken broth, and apple cider vinegar. Cover the skillet, lower the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Freeze for up to 3 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container.
- To reheat, defrost overnight in the refrigerator if frozen. Then, cook over medium-low heat until warmed through or microwave at 1-minute intervals.
- This recipe is simmered after the ground turkey is added. Undercook the turkey just a bit so it doesn't become rubbery from overcooking.
- Use plenty of oil when cooking your ground turkey. The meat is very lean, making it easy for the meat to dry out and/or stick to the pan.
