Directions
Cook rotini to desired doneness as directed on package.
Drain; keep warm.
Meanwhile, heat oil in large non-stick skillet over medium hear until hot.
Add onion, bell pepper, garlic, and turkey; cook and stir 5 to 10 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink.
( I cooked the onion for awhile first, added the meat and pepper and then finally in the last few minutes added the garlic. I don't like over done garlic).
Add tomato sauce, beans and oregano; mix well.
Bring to boil.
Reduce heat; cover and simer 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
Serve over rotini.
