INGREDIENTS
5 oz Lean Ground Beef (95% lean)
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Spaghetti
1 medium Fresh Tomato
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 small Yellow Onion
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Finely chop the garlic, onion, and fresh tomato. Sauté the garlic and onion until softened, then add the tomato and Italian seasoning. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to form a fresh tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
While the sauce is simmering, form the lean ground beef into small meatballs (about 1-1.5 inch diameter). Lightly season them with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning.
Place the meatballs in the same skillet with the sauce. Brown the meatballs on all sides over medium heat, then reduce the heat, cover, and let them cook through for an additional 8-10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente and drain.
Serve the meatballs and fresh tomato sauce over the spaghetti. Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy.
