Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix all of the meatball ingredients together until uniform. Roll the meatballs into 1" meatballs. Place them on parchment paper on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- While the meatballs are baking, trim the ends off of your zucchini, and then turn the zucchini into zoodles with a zoodle maker.
- In a saute pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil for 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds to a minute.
- Add the zoodles to the pan, sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt. Saute the zoodles, stirring, for about 3-5 minutes or until softened, but not mushy.
- While the zoodles are sauteeing, heat the oil for the spinach in a saute pan over medium heat for 3 minutes.
- Add garlic, and saute for 30 seconds.
- Add the baby spinach all at once, and immediately salt the spinach.
- Stir to coat the spinach in the oil until mostly wilted. Add broth to the spinach and cover, turning the heat to low. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- When the zoodles are cooked, taste and add more salt, if needed.
- Stir in diced roma tomatoes, and saute for 2 more minutes.
- Turn off the heat, and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Uncover the spinach, and add a splash of lemon juice or balsamic vinegar, to taste.
- When the 20 minutes is up for the meatballs, check if they are done and slightly browned. If not, flip the meatballs over, and bake for 3-5 more minutes or until cooked through.
