Preparation:

Step 1
• Bolognese:
  
  In a saucepan, combine ground turkey, tomato sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, salt, Italian seasoning, pepper, garlic, bay leaf, carrots, onion, and 1/2 cup water. Don't brown the turkey; add everything at once. Cover, bring to a simmer, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 1 hour. Remove the bay leaf and stir in the parsley.
Step 2
• Noodles:
  
  Using a spiralizer, slice the zucchini into thin noodles. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; spray with cooking spray or a little olive oil. Add the noodles and cook for about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle in the sauce and toss to coat. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and serve.
