Day 1 prep… decided to make something I’ve made a lot… pasta.  I knew at least I could eat it all day long.  There’s no cheese in this (other than what is in the Vodka Sauce).  I loooooove cheese so it is just a well I don’t keep much around.  I just browned up the turkey, put it aside, then sautéd the onion and garlic.  Then add the sauce and herbs and turkey back in.  Let it bubble up and add the spinach, then toss with pasta.

I could have probably added the whole bag of spinach.  I always for get how much it wilts, although if I get too much, I can taste it.  I really don’t like much of the taste of cooked spinach.  I hardly notice it in the dish and I think it adds some nutritional value.  I don’t like bell peppers, but they’d make a good addition sautéd with the onion.  I’m really picky about my veggies :(

day 1 meal food

Cooked in my huge skillet… boy is it a lot. The turkey and the pasta are the same color so it looks like it’s all pasta!

And packed in a 8 cup container.  That’s 1.8 liters if you’re metrically inclined.  Looks like a heck of a lot of food.

Monday’s challenge is to eat it and only it.  Hrm.

I have about 1/3 of a package of ground turkey left.  I weighed it and put it in a ziploc bag and wrote weight and date on it with a permanent marker to hopefully use up later this week.
