INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 medium Zucchini
1 cup Ripe Tomatoes
1 Egg White
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, minced garlic (from 2 cloves), salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.
Form the turkey mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.
Heat half a tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and sear them on all sides until lightly browned.
Place the skillet with meatballs into the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes until fully cooked.
While the meatballs bake, blend ripe tomatoes with fresh basil and a pinch of salt and pepper to create a simple, uncooked marinara sauce. Alternatively, lightly sauté the tomato blend in a small saucepan for 5 minutes to warm it slightly.
To serve, plate the zucchini noodles and top them with turkey meatballs. Drizzle the fresh marinara sauce over the top, and add extra basil if desired.
