Caprese Zoodles With Ground Turkey

I love summertime when tomatoes are fresh and I can get fresh basil from my front yard.  Add fresh mozzarella, some ground spiced turkey and put it over some zucchini that has been turned into Zoodles and it's a plate of deliciousness.  You can easily substitute cooked shrimp or ground chicken or beef for the turkey.

• 1/2 teaspoon Pepper, Fresh Ground

• Fresh Basil Cut Into Strips For Garnish

1. Spray a pan with non stick spray and heat to medium
2. Add turkey and break it up as it cooks
