    Our family uses Spaghetti squash in stead of pasta- I'm sure this would be a great substitution for gluten free people as well. In fact we have our kids convinced that packages of spaghetti noodles are just dried spaghetti squash! (Now that they are reading I'm not sure how long this will last) - 6/19/09

    On a gluten free note, not all ground turkey is gluten free. If you are a celiac, you need to be careful of the type you purchace. Some antibiotics that are used on animal meat contain gluten. - 12/15/08

    I know this is a great pasta sauce recipe, because it's nearly identical to my own! The only difference is that I throw in some diced (fresh) Roma tomatoes. This was the first recipe in which I substituted ground turkey for ground beef, and it was the gateway to many more ground turkey recipes. - 7/15/08
