Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the carrot and celery and saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the turkey and saute 1 minute. Add the marinara sauce. Decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend, stirring often. Stir in the basil. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Cool the sauce completely, then transfer it to a container and freeze for future use. Bring the sauce to a simmer before using.)
- Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat, adding enough reserved cooking liquid to moisten as needed. Serve with the Parmesan.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, but be sure to choose high-quality tomatoes that are packed in tomato juice, not water.
- Brown the meat well: This will help to develop the flavor of the sauce. Don't be afraid to let the meat get a little crispy around the edges.
- Add vegetables: Vegetables such as onions, carrots, celery, and garlic add flavor and nutrition to the sauce. You can also add other vegetables, such as zucchini, mushrooms, or spinach.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
- Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
Conclusion:
Turkey sauce is a versatile and delicious dish that can be served with a variety of pasta shapes. It is also a great way to use up leftover turkey. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious turkey sauce that your family and friends will love.
