Enjoy this light yet satisfying dish featuring tender turkey meatballs baked to perfection, served atop a bed of whole wheat spaghetti and smothered in a vibrant, freshly made marinara sauce infused with garlic, onion, and basil.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1 medium Fresh Tomato, diced
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, diced
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
5 Fresh Basil Leaves
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, mix the lean ground turkey with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.
Place the turkey meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through.
In a saucepan over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced onion for about 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the diced fresh tomato and a few torn basil leaves, and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes to create a fresh marinara sauce. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, prepare the whole wheat spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain.
To serve, plate the spaghetti and top with the turkey meatballs. Spoon the fresh marinara sauce over the meatballs and garnish with additional basil if desired.
