Turkey Meatballs With Pasta

Tender meatballs in tomato sauce, worth having while you still can.

30 minutes · for the low-fiber days

Ingredients

Per person. The planner scales these for however many you are cooking for.

Method

  1. Mix the turkey with a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of water, then roll into small balls, handling as little as possible.
  2. Brown them in a skillet over medium heat, about 5 minutes, turning once.
  3. Add the tomato puree, reduce the heat and simmer until the meatballs are cooked through, about 15 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile cook the pasta, then toss with the sauce and finish with the cheese.
  5. Cook this earlier in the week rather than later. Tomato sauce is out once you reach the days with nothing red in them, because the color can be mistaken for blood during the exam.
