Italian Tonight
I'm thinking of making turkey spaghetti, with a whole wheat pasta, along with garlic bread made from a loaf of Italian bread I have lying around and needs to be eaten before long. I like to use turkey in spaghetti because it's lower in fats than beef. And ground turkey doesn't have a lot of flavor (i.e. it tastes just like chicken ) So spaghetti is a great way to season up the turkey.
