2 red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 yellow bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
20 roma tomatoes
1 cup onion, chopped
10 ounces tomato paste, no salt added
2 lbs ground turkey or 2 lbs lean ground beef
3 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons dried basil
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 cup water

1
Brown turkey, and refrigerate until ready to use. Add a generous coating of Mrs. Dash Italian Seasoning Blend to turkey while it is browning. Substitute lean ground beef instead of ground turkey if desired.
2
Puree 1/2 your roma tomatoes in your food processor to make your own low sodium sauce. Chop the other half of the tomatoes into wedged slices.
3
Place all all ingredients except turkey in 5 quart slow cooker and stir. Cook on LOW 7-8 hours. Add browned turkey anytime after 6 hours. Stir gently while adding turkey.
4
About 30 minutes before serving, stir in additional seasoning to your taste preferences, then sprinkle about 1/2 cup fresh chopped spring onions across the top without stirring them inches.
5
Serve over pasta with oven-roasted zucchini chunks on the side. The sauce also goes great on the zucchini. Sprinkle with grated cheese if desired.
