Ingredients

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried chopped onions
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon fennel seed
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground turkey 93/7 lean

Instructions

Mix the spices in a large bowl.
1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, 1 teaspoon dried chopped onions, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon dried basil, ½ teaspoon dried oregano, ¼ teaspoon fennel seed, ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika, ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Add the ground turkey and mix until completely combined.
1 pound ground turkey
Refrigerate for 30 minutes, if desired, to allow flavors to meld.
Heat olive oil in a skillet on the stove over medium-high heat. Brown the meat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until cooked completely through.
If there is excess grease in the pan, transfer the meat to a paper towel lined plate to remove the grease.
Add the ground sausage to pasta sauce or use as desired.

Notes

You may use extra lean ground turkey if desired. It will not be as moist as 93/7. Ground chicken can be used in place of ground turkey.
