INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey (93% lean)
2 oz Fresh Pasta
1 medium Tomato
1/4 medium Red Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
5 leaves Fresh Basil
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F for roasting the tomato sauce ingredients.
In a bowl, season the lean ground turkey with salt, pepper, garlic powder (if desired), and dried oregano. Form into small meatballs.
Place the meatballs on a lined baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until fully cooked.
While the meatballs are roasting, prepare the herb-roasted tomato sauce. Quarter the tomato, dice the red onion, and mince the garlic.
Combine the tomato, red onion, garlic, olive oil, a few torn basil leaves, and a pinch of salt in a small baking dish. Roast in the oven for about 10 minutes until the tomato softens and the flavors meld.
Cook the fresh pasta in boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain well.
Toss the pasta with the roasted tomato mixture, breaking up the tomatoes slightly to create a chunky sauce.
Plate the pasta and top with turkey meatballs. Garnish with extra fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
