Not Yo’ Momma’s Spaghetti

This recipe is great for those who have special diet needs or for those of you who are looking to eat more nutrient dense meals. Everything from the sauce, to the meatballs, to the zoodles, can be made right in your kitchen. Lets get cooking!

Lets Start with the sauce:

Ingredients:

1 14oz Can of diced tomatoes (fresh work great too!)

1 4oz can of tomato paste

1/2 onion

3 cloves of garlic

1Tbsp Butter

1tsp parsley

1tsp oregano

1tsp basil

1tsp salt

1tsp pepper

Lets Get Cooking:

Step 1: Chop your garlic and your onion. Add butter to a pot and saute your garlic and onion until translucent.

Step 2: add in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste as well as all the spices. set to a low simmer and cook for 20 minutes. make sure not to let the sauce stick or burn.

Step 3: Add 1 cup of water or 1 cup of bone broth (if you have it) to the sauce until you get the consistency you desire. Bon appetit

Meatballs:

Ingredients:

1 lb grass fed ground beer

1 lb ground turkey

2 eggs

1/4 cup almond flour

1Tbsp oregano

4 cloves of garlic- chopped

1tsp basil

1Tbsp onion powder

1tsp salt

1tsp pepper

2tsp crushed red pepper (optional)

Lets get cooking:

Step 1: Combine all ingredients into a bowl. I personally wear gloves and mix the ingredients by hand. Don’t over work the meat or it will get tough.

Step 2: Roll the meat into golf ball sized balls and place 1″ apart on a cookie sheet

Step 3: Put your meatballs into the over at 400 degrees and cook for 25-30 minutes.

Step 4: Bon appetit

Zoodles:

Ingredients:

3-4 Peeled Zucchinis

1Tbsp butter

salt & pepper to taste

To Make:

Step 1: Spiral Zucchini with a veggie spiral. If you don’t have one, you can cut your zucchini into very thin slices.

Step 2: sautee zucchini in a pan with butter. add salt and pepper to taste. Cook until Tender.

LETS COMBINE THIS:

I personally place the zucchini on my plate first, then the meatballs, and then cover everything with sauce and top with crushed red pepper. You can pile it on your plate in any manner you want, it’ll still taste delicious! If you give this recipe a try, take a picture and tag me. Id love to hear your feedback!
