INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Cooked Red Lentils
1/4 cup Rolled Oats
1 Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 medium Fresh Tomato
1 handful Fresh Basil
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 medium Zucchini
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, cooked red lentils, rolled oats, egg white, chopped parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Shape the mixture into meatballs (about 4-5 meatballs depending on size) and place them on a lightly lined baking sheet.
Bake the meatballs for 15-18 minutes or until cooked through, turning once halfway through for even browning.
While the meatballs bake, prepare the fresh marinara by finely dicing the fresh tomato and mincing the garlic clove. Toss with torn fresh basil leaves and a pinch of salt to bring out the flavors.
For the roasted vegetables, chop the zucchini and red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on another baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven alongside the meatballs for about 15 minutes, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Once everything is cooked, plate the meatballs topped with a generous spoonful of fresh marinara and serve with a side of roasted vegetables.
Enjoy your hearty and balanced meal!
