INGREDIENTS

5 oz Lean Ground Turkey

1 large Egg White

1/8 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

1 medium Zucchini

1 Garlic Clove

2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley

1/2 tsp Olive Oil

Salt and Pepper to taste

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F.

• 2

  In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

• 3

  Form the mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a golf ball, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

• 4

  Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they are cooked through and lightly browned.

• 5

  While the meatballs bake, use a spiralizer or vegetable peeler to create noodles from the zucchini. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of salt over the zucchini noodles and let them sit for a few minutes to draw out excess moisture, then pat dry.

• 6

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly sauté the zucchini noodles for 2-3 minutes, just until heated through but still retaining a slight crunch.

• 7

  Serve the warm turkey meatballs atop the zucchini noodles. Garnish with a little extra parsley if desired and enjoy a balanced, protein-rich meal.
