INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 large Egg White
1 tbsp Almond Flour
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1 medium Fresh Tomato
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp chopped Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, almond flour, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix gently until just combined to avoid tough meatballs.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until fully cooked and lightly browned.
While the meatballs bake, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
For the tomato sauce, dice the fresh tomato and mince the garlic. In a small pan, add the extra virgin olive oil and sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced tomato to the pan and simmer for 5-7 minutes until it softens, then stir in the chopped fresh basil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
To assemble, plate the cooked spaghetti, top with the baked turkey meatballs, and drizzle the fresh tomato sauce over the top.
Garnish with a few extra basil leaves if desired, and serve warm.
