INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1 medium Fresh Tomato
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
1/2 small Yellow Onion
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil Leaves
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Finely dice the yellow onion, mince the garlic, and rough chop the fresh tomato and basil leaves.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with half of the minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into small meatballs.
Place the meatballs in the heated skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
While the meatballs are cooking, in another pan, add the remaining garlic along with the diced yellow onion. Sauté until softened, then add the chopped tomato and basil. Simmer gently for 5-7 minutes to create a fresh tomato sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Combine the spaghetti with the fresh tomato sauce, place the turkey meatballs on top, and garnish with extra basil if desired before serving.
