1. In a non-stick skillet, cook the ground turkey until it is no longer pink. Set aside.
2. Heat the olive oil, salt and pepper (to taste) in a large pot (think dutch oven sized pot).
3. Add the onions, and allow to carmelize for a few minutes before adding the mushrooms. Sautee over medium-high heat for a few minutes.
4. Next add the bell peppers and zucchini. Sautee for a few minutes more.
5. When the vegetables are crisp-tender, lower the heat a bit and add the Italian seasoning, the reserved cooked turkey, and the jar of pasta sauce. Stir and heat until it bubbles a bit, and then lower the heat to simmer the sauce, and reduce the liquid a bit.
