INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Lean Ground Beef
1 large Egg White
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes (No Salt Added)
1/4 cup Fresh Basil (chopped)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic (minced)
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the lean ground beef, egg white, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until just combined to keep the meat tender.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15 minutes or until cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare the silky zucchini noodles. Using a spiralizer, create noodles from the medium zucchini.
In a small saucepan, warm the diced tomatoes over medium heat. Add a pinch of salt and stir in the chopped fresh basil to infuse the sauce with aromatic flavor. Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes.
In a separate skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Briefly sauté the zucchini noodles for 1-2 minutes until slightly tender but still retaining a bit of crunch.
Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the baked beef meatballs, and generously drizzle the warm basil tomato sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy this satisfying blend of robust flavors and light textures.
