6 oz Lean Ground Turkey

1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti

1 medium Fresh Tomato

1/4 medium Red Onion

1 clove Garlic

1 tsp Olive Oil

2 tbsp Fresh Basil

1 tsp Dried Oregano

Salt and Pepper to taste

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F.

• 2

  In a bowl, combine lean ground turkey with salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Mix gently to form a uniform blend.

• 3

  Shape the turkey mixture into small meatballs, about the size of a golf ball.

• 4

  Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through.

• 5

  While the meatballs are baking, prepare the tomato sauce. Finely dice the fresh tomato and red onion; mince the garlic.

• 6

  Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the red onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion softens.

• 7

  Add the diced tomato to the skillet along with fresh basil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes break down into a chunky sauce.

• 8

  Meanwhile, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.

• 9

  Toss the cooked spaghetti with the tomato sauce, and then gently nestle the baked meatballs on top.
