Step 1

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 2

Add the ground turkey or beef to the skillet. Cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks (about 5-7 minutes).

Step 3

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4

While the sauce is simmering, heat a separate non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini and squash noodles, cooking for about 3-5 minutes until they are just tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 5

To serve, place the zucchini and squash noodles on a plate and top with the meat sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.
