Directions
- Cook 12 ounces linguine noodles al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles and set aside.
- Add broccoli to microwave, cooking for 1/2 the time on the package - you will add this in the next step.
- In a Dutch oven, add 1 pound lean ground turkey over medium-high heat. Cook and crumble the meat, adding the partially steamed broccoli after 3 minutes. Continue to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the meat is no longer pink and the broccoli is heated through. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
