  3. Turn up the heat, add the turkey mince, and brown it, breaking it up with a spoon, for 5-6 minutes until no longer pink and lightly browned.
  4. Add the crushed tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring. Add the spinach and let it wilt for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the drained fusilli to the frying pan, toss everything together for 2 minutes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot on two plates.
