Ingredients
4 cans S&W canned tomato-Sodium Free DRAINED6 garlic cloves, peeled10-12 basil leaves 2 cups fresh spinach2lbs lean ground turkeysalt/pepper/garlic salt if you choose4 celery stalks2 carrots2 zucchini2 Medium Green Bell Peppers7-10 Mushrooms1 jalapeno (i remove seeds)1 Yellow Onion1 large can tomato paste or small cansFeel free to leave some veggies off if allergic or suchI also have made with adding Black Beans/Corn/Green Beans/ Yellow Squash/Brocolli...mix and match and see what works for you!
Directions
I keep all skins on veggies, but trim off ends/stems etc. Brown the ground turkey, add to crockpot. Season as you prefer, I use garlic salt. Blend/food process ingredients, I do it in batches. I do canned tomato, basil, garlic, spinach in the blender. Add to crockpot. Then in food processor I do all the veggies in batches (depending on your food processor size), add to crockpot as you go. I process them down to almost liquid because my family "hates" veggies so they can't see them. You do not have to process down that much if you want it kind of chunky! I add 1 large jar or 2 small jars of Tomato paste to crockpot also to it thickens a bit. Leave it in the crockpot sometimes all day sometimes only 4 hours. Either way it's cooked and yummy! I cook it on low, you can even cook on low 3-4 hours then keep on warm until ready to eat if you choose.
