INGREDIENTS
6 oz Ground Turkey (93% lean)
1 cup Whole Grain Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (no salt added)
1 Egg
4 sprigs Fresh Basil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Onion Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, roughly 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, until they are cooked through and lightly golden on the outside.
While the meatballs are baking, cook the whole grain pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan, warm the tomato sauce over medium heat. Once warmed, stir in some chopped fresh basil for added flavor.
Plate the pasta, top with the turkey meatballs, and drizzle the warm tomato sauce over the top.
Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
