INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ground Turkey (93% lean)
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1/2 cup Fresh Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
1 small Yellow Onion
2 Tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the ground turkey with finely minced garlic (from 2 cloves), a small diced yellow onion, chopped fresh basil, salt, and pepper.
Form the turkey mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a golf ball, ensuring they are compact for even cooking.
Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil to promote crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and slightly browned on the outside.
While the meatballs bake, warm the fresh tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Toss the cooked spaghetti with the warm tomato sauce and plate.
Top the spaghetti with the crispy turkey meatballs and garnish with additional fresh basil if desired before serving.
