INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (no sugar added)
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a medium bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg, whole wheat bread crumbs, minced garlic, chopped onion, and Italian seasoning. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the meat.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter.
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides for about 4-5 minutes.
Pour the tomato sauce over the meatballs in the skillet and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the meatballs are fully cooked.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain well.
Serve the turkey meatballs and sauce over the bed of whole wheat spaghetti. Enjoy your hearty, balanced meal!
