INGREDIENTS
3.5 oz Lean Ground Beef (100g)
1 Large Egg
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 Garlic Clove
2 tbsp chopped Red Onion
5 Fresh Basil Leaves
1 Medium Roma Tomato
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
0.5 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine lean ground beef, egg, whole wheat breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped red onion, a sprinkle of dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Gently mix the ingredients and form small meatballs, roughly 1.5 inches in diameter.
Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15-18 minutes, until cooked through.
While the meatballs bake, prepare the fresh tomato sauce by dicing the Roma tomato and combining it with chopped basil, a dash of olive oil, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan. Simmer on low heat for 5-7 minutes.
Prepare whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
To assemble, plate the spaghetti, top with baked meatballs, and generously spoon the fresh tomato sauce over the top.
Garnish with additional basil if desired and serve warm.
