- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds, then add the sausage. Cook until the meat begins to brown. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- While the sausage cooks, add crushed tomatoes, paprika and cottage cheese to a blender and process until smooth. Pour this sauce over the cooked turkey and simmer for 5 minutes.

Notes
- Storage tips:
- In the refrigerator: Transfer cooled pasta to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- To reheat: Leftovers can be reheated on the stove over low heat or in the microwave. You may need to add a small amount of broth, water or milk to moisten and loosen the noodles.
