INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 Egg
1 cup Whole Wheat Spaghetti (cooked)
1 cup Fresh Tomatoes, diced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Breadcrumbs
1 clove Garlic
1/4 Red Onion
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil, chopped
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, and finely chopped red onion. Season with salt and pepper.
Gently form the mixture into small meatballs, ensuring they are evenly sized for uniform cooking.
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for about 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, prepare the fresh marinara: in a saucepan, combine the diced tomatoes, a drizzle of olive oil, and chopped basil. Simmer the sauce over low heat for 5-7 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
Prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Plate a serving of cooked spaghetti, top with the fresh marinara sauce, and arrange the turkey meatballs on top.
Garnish with additional basil if desired, and serve warm.
