INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Turkey
0.75 cup Whole Wheat Pasta, cooked
0.5 cup Fresh Marinara Sauce
1 Egg White
1 clove Garlic, minced
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, minced garlic, chopped basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined to form a uniform mixture.
Shape the turkey mixture into small meatballs, approximately 1-inch in diameter.
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until they are fully cooked and slightly golden on the outside.
While the meatballs are baking, gently warm the fresh marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Prepare the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Combine the cooked pasta with the warmed marinara sauce, stirring until evenly coated.
Plate the pasta and top with the baked turkey meatballs. Garnish with extra fresh basil if desired, and enjoy this nutritious, balanced meal.
