Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using ground beef, break up meat until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. If using ground turkey, break up meat until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes. Add to pasta as desired.

Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add pepper and onion mix and a pinch of salt to hot pan. Stir occasionally until vegetables are tender, 6-8 minutes.
While peppers and onions cook, cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces. -
2 Add the Broccoli and Sauce
Add broccoli, minced garlic and lemon basil, tomato sauce, red pepper flakes (to taste), garlic salt, and 1/2 cup water to hot pan. Cover and bring to a simmer.
Once simmering, cook until broccoli is tender, 4-6 minutes. -
