Spicy Goulash or Spaghetti Sauce

• 1 lb lean ground turkey breast (99% fat free)
• 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms (optional)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 4 -8 garlic cloves (to taste)
• 1 teaspoon dried chipotle powder (more to taste, if you like very mild spice- use ancho instead- smokey but minimal heat)
• 12 cup water (1/2 cup with just meat, 1/4 cup with mushrooms)
• 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes in puree
• 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
• parsley, to taste
• basil, to taste
• rosemary, to taste
• 12 teaspoon sugar

1. Sautee the meat, onion, garlic, pepper and mushrooms (optional) until cooked in the water.
2. add tomatoes, spices, etc and stir occasionally - let it simmer for about half an hour to 45 minutes (you can cook pasta while this is being done if using as a sauce).
3. If making goulash add 1.5 cups water, bring back to a bubble, then turn down heat, pour in rice and cover for 30 minutes until rice is cooked.
4. serve and enjoy.
