Take a separate pan and rub with a paper towel dabbed in olive oil to just coat the surface. Heat mushrooms on med-high and stir until softened and add
ground turkey. Cook until no longer pink and add to the sauce. Keep the sauce on med-low and covered stirring frequently for about 45 minutes to an hour. Longer if you want it to be the best.
