INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Beef (90% lean)
1 large Egg White
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
1/2 cup Fresh Marinara Sauce
1 Garlic Clove
2 Tbsp Fresh Basil Leaves
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a bowl, gently mix the lean ground beef with the egg white, finely minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, salt, and pepper until just combined, being careful not to overmix for tender meatballs.
Form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake the meatballs for 15-18 minutes or until cooked through and lightly browned.
While the meatballs are baking, spiralize the zucchini into noodles and lightly toss them with a pinch of salt. If you prefer them slightly tender, you can sauté the zucchini noodles in a nonstick pan for 2-3 minutes.
Warm the fresh marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Plate the zucchini noodles, top with the baked meatballs, and generously spoon the warm marinara sauce over everything.
Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired and serve immediately.
