The following post was originally featured on Cook Eat Paleo and written by Lisa Wells, who is part of POPSUGAR Select Fitness.

For an easy weeknight dinner serve this crock pot turkey Bolognese sauce with zucchini noodles. This Paleo take on Bolognese sauce couldn’t be easier. Just dump everything in the slow cooker in the morning, and make zucchini noodles when you get home. What makes this recipe so easy is not browning the meat first; the turkey goes in the crock pot raw.

The key to getting the right texture is leaving the ground turkey in chunks while it cooks. Just cover it with the sauce – don’t mix it in completely (I learned this the hard way). When you break it up after it cooks, it creates a texture more like traditional meat sauce. I use my homemade herbes de Provence for the Italian herb seasoning here. The blend of Mediterranean herbs works in this dish as long as there is no lavender in it. I also love this turkey Bolognese over spaghetti squash roasted whole in the oven, it gives it a little bit of extra sweetness.
