INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey (99% Lean)
1 large Egg White
1 tbsp Almond Flour
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 sprigs Fresh Basil (optional)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, almond flour, minced garlic, dried oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, roughly the size of a golf ball (about 4-5 meatballs, depending on your desired serving size).
Place the meatballs on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. If using a peeler, serve the zucchini as ribbon-like noodles.
Lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a non-stick pan with a small drizzle of olive oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes just to warm them while keeping a firm texture.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Serve the baked turkey meatballs on a bed of zucchini noodles, spoon the warm marinara sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh basil if desired.
