Preparation

Step 1

Brown turkey and garlic in a large Dutch oven. Stir in pepper, salt, broth Italian-style stewed tomatoes, and sliced carrots; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes.

Stir cut zucchini slices torn spinach and beans into mixture, cover and cook stirring occasionally 4-5 min. or until zucchinis is crisp-tender.

I normally let this simmer on stove for 2 hours.
