INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 large Egg White
56 grams Whole Wheat Spaghetti (dry)
1/2 cup Fresh Marinara Sauce
1 Garlic Clove
Fresh Basil sprigs
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a medium bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined to form a cohesive mixture.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned on the outside.
While the meatballs are baking, cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan, warm the fresh marinara sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Combine the cooked spaghetti with the warmed marinara sauce, then plate a portion and top with the baked turkey meatballs. Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
