INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup Whole Wheat Spaghetti (cooked)
1/2 cup Crushed Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with one minced garlic clove, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and form into small meatballs.
Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through.
While the meatballs are baking, heat a small pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Sauté the remaining minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes, season with salt, pepper, and fresh basil. Allow the sauce to simmer for 5-7 minutes.
Cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Combine the spaghetti with the tomato sauce and gently mix in the baked turkey meatballs.
Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired and serve warm.
