Directions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

2. Add mushrooms first—let them sit and brown before stirring (this builds                     that deep, savory flavor).

3. Add onion and garlic. Let everything soften and become fragrant.

4. Push to the sides and add your ground turkey in the center.

5. Season the turkey as it cooks (pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning, soy                           sauce).

6. Break and brown the meat, then mix everything together.

7. Add zucchini if using and cook until just tender.

8. Stir in cream cheese or a splash of cream for that soft, silky finish.

  9. Sprinkle in Parmesan and let it melt into everything.
