Clean Eating Meat Sauce (Freezer Meal)

Meat sauce can already be pretty healthy so it doesn’t require a lot of changes to make traditional meat sauce into something clean eating.

Clean Eating Meat Sauce

• 1 lb of ground turkey
• 8 oz package of mushrooms, chopped
• 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
• 29 oz can of low sodium canned tomato sauce
• 14.5 oz can of fire roasted tomatoes (Muir Glen organic)
• 1/4 cup of red wine
• 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• seal salt to taste

1. Brown the ground turkey at the bottom of the sauce pan, sprinkling a little sea salt as it cooks.
2. Stir in the mushrooms and onions and let them cook for about 5 minutes.
3. Add the tomato sauce, fire roasted tomatoes, red wine, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and more salt (to taste).
4. Bring it to a boil, stirring occasionally.
5. Let it simmer for about an hour.

Tip:  After the meat is browned, the rest of the ingredients can be added to a crockpot and cooked on low all day.

This sauce freezes REALLY well in containers or ziplock bags.

I believe the 21 Day Fix equivalents for one cup or sauce are: 1/2 purple, 1/2 red/ 1/4 green
