Ingredients:
- 450 g raw turkey sausages, casings removed
- 280 g cremini mushrooms, coarsely chopped
- 0.5 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 bag (280g) frozen green peas, thawed slightly
- 450 g dry farfalle pasta (bow ties)
- 0.5 tbsp. freshly grated Grano Padano cheese
Preparation:
- In a large saucepan, bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season the turkey with salt and black pepper. Add to the skillet and cook, breaking up any large clumps, until golden brown. Remove the turkey from the skillet. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet and heat through.

- Mix thoroughly and cook gently over medium heat for 5 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil. If the pasta is dry, don't be afraid to add more olive oil.Check for salt. Turn off the heat and add the grated cheese. Mix well and serve in a large bowl.
