INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Whole Wheat Spaghetti (cooked)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 medium Onion, finely chopped
2 cloves Garlic, minced
2 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Sauté the finely chopped onion and minced garlic until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with half of the chopped basil, salt, and pepper. Form small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the meatballs in the heated skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until they are well browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
While the meatballs are cooking, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Once the meatballs are nearly done, add the sauce to the skillet and gently toss with the meatballs.
Plate the cooked spaghetti and top with turkey meatballs and marinara sauce. Garnish with the remaining fresh basil.
Serve immediately and enjoy your wholesome, protein-packed meal.
