INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 large Egg White
1 clove Garlic
4 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tbsp Fresh Oregano
1 medium Fresh Tomato
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 medium Zucchini
1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, minced garlic, chopped basil, and oregano. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs for 15-18 minutes, or until they are cooked through and lightly browned.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare your fresh herb marinara by dicing the tomato and gently simmering it in a small saucepan with a teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat for about 5 minutes to soften and meld the flavors. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Using a vegetable peeler or spiralizer, create zucchini ribbons. If desired, lightly sauté the ribbons in a nonstick pan for 2 minutes to warm them, keeping their crisp texture.
Arrange the zucchini ribbons on a plate, top with the baked meatballs, and spoon the fresh herb marinara over the top.
Finish by sprinkling grated Parmesan cheese and additional fresh basil as garnish before serving.
