Here's a fairly simple way to bulk up a classic favorite with veggies!
Sauté onion in olive oil on medium heat, until slightly translucent. Add celery after ~2 minutes; then squash, then garlic in approx. one minute intervals, until all ingredients properly sautéed to your preference. Add fresh, finely chopped spinach, and stir until well-mixed.
Add ground turkey, until nicely browned (about 5-10 minutes), mixing with veggies as it browns.
Add sloppy joe sauce, and let simmer for ~5 minutes on low.
Scoop on to buns or wraps, OR eat by itself. Enjoy! (But keep the wet wipes handy...)
**You can add, delete, or exchange veggies to tailor to your needs, or simply what's in your fridge!
Alternative veggies to add:
* finely chopped, softened carrots
* steamed broccoli bits
* steamed cauliflower
* firm tofu bits (perhaps replacing the ground meat)
* corn
Depending on how many veggies you add to this dish, you may find a need for more than one can of sauce -- it all depends on how saucy you like your Joes! :o)
