INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 cup Fresh Chopped Tomatoes
1/4 cup Diced Onion
2 Garlic Cloves
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, combine lean ground turkey, egg white, whole wheat breadcrumbs, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper. Mix until just incorporated to form meatballs.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through.
While the meatballs bake, prepare the fresh tomato sauce by heating a small saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion and the remaining minced garlic in a splash of water or a light spray of olive oil until softened.
Add the chopped tomatoes and let simmer for 5-7 minutes. Stir in chopped basil and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles from your medium zucchini. If desired, lightly sauté the noodles in a non-stick pan for 2 minutes to warm without losing their crisp texture.
Plate the zucchini noodles, top with turkey meatballs, and generously drizzle with the fresh tomato sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, lean, and nutritious meal.
