INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Whole Wheat Spaghetti (cooked)
1/2 cup Fresh Tomato Marinara
2 Tbsp Fresh Basil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, minced garlic, chopped basil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to form the meatball mixture; form into small meatballs (about 3-4 meatballs, totaling roughly 4 ounces of turkey).
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet. Drizzle with a little olive oil and bake for 15-18 minutes or until cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente.
In a small saucepan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add a small amount of minced garlic (if desired) for extra flavor, then stir in the fresh tomato marinara and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Drain the spaghetti and plate it. Top the pasta with the freshly simmered marinara sauce, then add the baked turkey meatballs on top.
Garnish with extra fresh basil if desired and serve immediately.
