  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
  2. Add in diced onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, ground turkey, garlic and seasonings.

  5. Stir in mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, if needed. Turn off heat.
  6. In a small bowl, stir chopped parsley and basil into ricotta.
  7. Serve pasta with a dollop of ricotta mixture on top and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Can use ground beef or Italian sausage instead of ground turkey too!
