Weekday dinner: a surprisingly satisfying pasta
Pasta and ground turkey were both on sale at Safeway this week - score! While thinking about what to make on Friday evening, I remembered a particular Cooking for Mr. Latte excerpt describing a pasta sauced with yogurt. And so, while boiling water for shell pasta (one of my favorite pasta shapes), I cooked some ground turkey with diced onion, and then after turning off the heat, added some plain yogurt and golden raisins. The remaining heat liquified the yogurt, resulting in a creamy and somewhat tangy sauce with bursts of sweetness from the raisins. I paired the pasta with some steamed broccoli.
