1/4 cup olive oil
3 cups finely chopped onions
1 cup finely chopped celery
1 cup finely chopped carrots
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds ground turkey
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon Essence, recipe follows
2 teaspoons salt

In a large stockpot, heat the oil over medium high heat. Add the onions to the pot and saute until

cook until
starting to brown and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Season the meat with thyme, Italian
seasoning,
Essence and salt, to taste. Add all remaining ingredients except the milk, lower the heat and
simmer
uncovered until thickened, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours, stirring from time to time.
Immediately prior to serving, add the milk to the sauce and stir well to incorporate.
Serve over cooked pasta, such as spaghetti or linguini.
