I came across a recipe for turkey paprikash while looking for something new and different to do with my ground turkey. I made some modifications and the result was this recipe, something like goulash meets stroganoff meets tacos. A weird but wonderful hybrid one-pot meal. And so incredibly hearty and healthy!
Ground turkey is sautéed with onion, red pepper, mushrooms, and plenty of spices. The noodles are cooked right in the sauce – all in one pan and ready in under 20 minutes!
