INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
1 tablespoon Fresh Oregano
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, chopped fresh oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until fully cooked and lightly browned.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package directions until al dente.
In a small saucepan, warm the marinara sauce along with a teaspoon of olive oil, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Drain the spaghetti and plate it, then top with the baked turkey meatballs.
Drizzle the warmed herb marinara sauce over the meatballs and spaghetti, and garnish with additional fresh basil if desired.
