Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan

  • 1 tbsp. Olive oil

  • 1/4 cup Whole-wheat bread crumbs

  • 1 Large egg white

  • 1 cup Fresh flat-leaf parsley

  • 2 cloves Garlic

  • 1 Medium carrot

  • 1/4 pound Raw Italian chicken sausage

  • 1/2 pound Ground turkey or chicken

  • 1 1/2 cups Marinara sauce

  • 1 Small spaghetti squash

Method

  • 01
    Heat the broiler. Cut ½ in. from the top and bottom of the squash, then cut in half lengthwise. Place the squash, cut-side down, on a plate and microwave on high until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
  • 02
    Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the turkey, sausage, carrot, garlic, parsley, egg white, bread crumbs, oil, and Parmesan. Form the mixture into 2-in. balls (about 12) and place them on a foil-lined, broiler-proof baking sheet. Broil until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • 03
    While the meatballs cook, warm the marinara sauce in a large skillet over low heat. Toss the meatballs in the sauce to coat.
  • 04
    Working on a plate or cutting board, scoop out and discard the squash seeds. With a fork, gently scrape the strands of flesh into a bowl. Serve the meatballs and sauce over the squash.
