Cook time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- Ground turkey (1 lb)
- Besto (6 tbsp)
- Garlic Salt (1 tsp)
- Black Pepper (1/2 tsp)
- Chopped onions (1 small onion)
- Paprika (3 tsp)
- Breadcrumbs (1/2 cup)
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil (2 tbsp)
- Zucchini Noodles (16 oz)
- Cherry tomatos (8 oz)
- Parmesan cheese (to garnish)
Directions:
- In a bowl, combine the ground turkey with garlic salt, black pepper, chopped onions, paprika, breadcrumbs, and Besto (3 tbsp).
- Mix everything thoroughly until the spices and ground turkey are well blended.
- Form the turkey mixture into meatballs, then heat olive oil (2 tbsp) in a medium pan over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the meatballs to the pan, cover with a lid, and cook over medium-low heat.
- After about 6 minutes, flip the meatballs and cover again to allow them to cook through. Continue flipping occasionally until all sides are golden brown and fully cooked.
- Remove the meatballs from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the zucchini noodles and halved cherry tomatoes. Sauté until the zucchini noodles are tender.
- Stir in 3 tablespoons of Besto, allowing the sauce to combine with the veggies.
- Once the zucchini noodles are cooked, plate them and top with the turkey meatballs.
- Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of Besto for extra flavor.
- Serve and enjoy!
