Enjoy a wholesome, balanced dinner with lean turkey meatballs nestled on a bed of whole wheat spaghetti drenched in a vibrant, fresh homemade marinara sauce. The medley of savory herbs, garlic, and diced tomatoes creates a colorful and satisfying dish that's as nourishing as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
2 oz Whole Wheat Spaghetti (dry)
1 medium Fresh Tomato, diced
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, finely chopped
1 Garlic Clove, minced
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with salt and pepper. Mix gently and form into small meatballs (about 6-8 meatballs).
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through.
Meanwhile, prepare the fresh marinara sauce. In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
Add the diced tomato to the saucepan. Allow the tomatoes to simmer for about 8-10 minutes, mashing them slightly with a spoon to create a chunky sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and stir in fresh basil.
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti in boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Combine the cooked spaghetti with the fresh marinara sauce. Serve the turkey meatballs on top or mixed into the spaghetti.
Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired, and enjoy your balanced, nutritious meal.
