- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bread cubes, 1 teaspoon of the Kosher salt and the pepper. Toast, stirring now and then, for 3 to 4 minutes until lightly browned and mostly crisp. Move the croutons to a plate and return the skillet to the heat.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes until soft and translucent.
- Add the garlic, ground turkey, ground fennel, oregano, thyme, Aleppo pepper, 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt and black pepper. Break the turkey into small pieces. Add the grape tomatoes and cook for 15 minutes, until the turkey is browned and the tomatoes burst and blister. If the tomatoes stay whole, pierce them with a knife.
- Stir in the chopped roasted red peppers, spinach and cannellini beans. Stir until warmed through and the spinach has wilted.
- Add the red wine vinegar, the minced garlic and the croutons, and stir to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper if you like.
- Divide among plates or bowls and serve, with Parmesan on top if you like.
