INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Zucchini Noodles
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese
1 large Egg White
2 cloves Garlic
1 small Onion
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Sea Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, dried oregano, and a pinch of sea salt and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through and lightly browned on the outside.
While the meatballs are baking, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet and lightly sauté the zucchini noodles for 2-3 minutes until just tender. Avoid overcooking to keep a slight crunch.
In a small saucepan, gently warm the tomato sauce mixed with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and stir in the fresh basil. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Plate the zucchini noodles, arrange the turkey meatballs on top, and drizzle with the warmed tomato basil sauce.
Finish by sprinkling grated Parmesan cheese over the dish and garnish with a few fresh basil leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this balanced, flavorful meal.
