Notes
- If you don’t have time to make the Hunters Pasta Sauce, you can add two 24 oz jars of sugar-free, all-natural sauce. I like to use Rao’s brand.
- You can add an extra jar to make extra sauce. Once done cooking, the sauce turns into a yummy meat sauce that you can save for later, or freeze
To make this recipe dairy-free, use dairy-free ricotta and parmesan cheese.
To make this recipe candida-friendly, use 93% lean ground turkey, omit the oats, and use dairy-free ricotta and parmesan cheese.
