PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• 2

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground turkey, egg, almond flour, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.

• 3

  Gently mix the ingredients by hand until just combined, taking care not to overwork the meat to ensure a tender texture.

• 4

  Portion the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs and arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

• 5

  Roast the meatballs in the oven for 15-18 minutes until they are browned and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 6

  While the meatballs are roasting, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.

• 7

  In a separate skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the baby spinach until it is just wilted.

• 8

  Transfer the roasted meatballs into the saucepan with the marinara and toss gently to coat.

• 9

  Serve the meatballs and sauce immediately over the bed of sautéed spinach.
