Ingredients

15 oz can chick peas-drain out most of the liquid, but not all

15 oz (thereabouts) can diced tomatoes

28 oz (approx) can of any flavor spaghetti sauce (we used DelMonte roasted garlic & onion)

1 & 1/2 lb ground turkey

6 cloves garlic, peeled & diced

1 large red onion sliced

dried fenugreek leaves (see below)

fresh basil leaves--if you squeeze them all together, I used about a golf ball sized clump

fresh parsley ?about 3-4 TBSP of leaves

oil for cooking

S & P to taste

pasta of your choice for serving the sauce on

Directions

Put a small amount of oil in your pan and begin to cook the onions. Once they are about half cooked, add the basil, parsley & garlic.

Keep it moving in the pan so the basil wont get that icky burnt taste.

Once the garlic has cooked a little, add diced tomatoes and chick peas-cook over medium heat so the chick peas can soften a little.

Add the ground turkey and cook meat until it's done.

Stir in dried fenugreek leaves-I started with 1teaspoon, but you can start with less-especially if you aren't familiar with the flavor of fenugreek-did I even spell it right???

Keep cooking it on stovetop over medium heat. Stir in the tomato sauce-salt & pepper to taste. Put your pasta on to cook.

Stir it well as it cooks a few more minutes-add more fenugreek if you feel the need ( I added another 1/2 teaspoon)/check the salt & pepper too.

Put some on your freshly cooked pasta.

Don't tell too many people you made this because then you wont have leftovers.
