INGREDIENTS

4 oz Lean Ground Turkey

1 large Egg White

1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs

1 cup Fresh Marinara Sauce

1 medium Zucchini

1 tsp Olive Oil

2 cloves Garlic

2 tbsp Fresh Basil (chopped)

Salt and Pepper to taste

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F.

• 2

  In a bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, egg white, whole wheat breadcrumbs, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined to form a uniform mixture.

• 3

  Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.

• 4

  Place the meatballs on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they are cooked through and lightly browned.

• 5

  While the meatballs are baking, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then add the fresh marinara sauce, basil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors.

• 6

  Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. Lightly sauté the zucchini noodles in a non-stick skillet for 1-2 minutes, just until warmed but still crisp.

• 7

  Plate the zucchini noodles as a base, top with the turkey meatballs, and generously spoon the fresh marinara sauce over the dish.

• 8

  Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired and serve immediately.
