Turkey Provencal Stew

Friday night we intended to go to the Cheesecake Factory that opened up about a year ago near us, thinking the wait time would at least finally be less than one hour.  Wrong...  1 hour plus.  That is an improvement over when it opened though, three hour wait times back then.  So, maybe we'll try again but for that next time, going for a run beforehand and not having a pre-dinner snack will not be an option.  We were famished.  Olive Garden was pretty close and they have a GF menu there!  I ended up having their newer chicken abruzzi (which I will have to replicate in the future).  But this is a quick twist on that dinner dish, inspired by the ground turkey package hanging out in our fridge that had to be consumed stat!

Ingredients:
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with garlic & onion
  • 1 can white cannellini beans
  • 3 c. chicken broth
  • 3 c. chopped baby spinach

Instructions:

1) In a saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the turkey and garlic until the turkey is cooked through.

2) Add in the tomatoes, beans, seasoning, & broth and turn the heat down to low-medium.  Let the broth simmer for 5-10 minutes.


3) Add in the spinach into the broth and let simmer for about 5 more minutes until the spinach is tender.  

4) Serve up the stew and enjoy with a salad.
