MY Incredible Healthy Spaghetti Recipe

What is a Healthy spaghetti recipe?Well... One day many years ago I started making a batch of spaghetti. I stood there looking at the ingredients and it just didn't seem like there was enough there. Some basic spaghetti noodles. A pound of ground beef. Then some store bought jar of sauce. And that was where you got the other toppings from like mushrooms, or onions. It just struck me as boring.

Well that just wouldn't cut it. I wanted a better, more flavorful, and more robust batch of spaghetti. In the end it just so happened to be a healthy spaghetti recipe.

So I took those ingredients and added everything else to the sauce that it was supposed to have, but I added them FRESH. Then I threw out the traditional pasta noodles for wheat noodles. There's a change of flavor you'll enjoy. Last, I changed the pound of ground beef to a pound of ground turkey. That was a delicious change of flavor! Ground chicken is tasty too. If you follow this spaghetti recipe and use plenty of fresh vegetables, you will have made an impressive and delicious healthy spaghetti recipe you'll be proud of, and healthier for it..

Also, many people look upon spaghetti as a decadent or high carb food. With this recipe, you can enjoy as much as your belly can stand and not feel guilty. In my opinion, everything in this recipe is good for you.
