INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 cup Whole Wheat Spaghetti (cooked)
1/2 cup Fresh Tomato Sauce
1 large Egg
1 Garlic Clove
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground beef, egg, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to incorporate all the ingredients.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until browned and cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Warm the fresh tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir in chopped fresh basil. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Plate the spaghetti, top with the baked meatballs, and generously spoon the tomato sauce over the top.
Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired, and serve immediately.
