Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 lbs lean ground beef
  • 1 1/4 lbs ground turkey
  • 3 tbsps dijonnaise
  • 2 dashes salt
  • 2 dashes pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 medium onions
  • 2 tsps leaves italian seasoning
  • 3 large zucchini
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
  • 1 can tomatoes

Directions

  • To make the meatballs first, place ground turkey & ground beef in a dish.
  • Very finely chop & dice the onion and add. Add herbs, Dijonnaise (just Dijon mustard & mayonnaise). The Dijonnaise will hold the meatballs together so you don't need an egg.
  • Once mixed thoroughly, take a large tablespoon of mixture and make a large meatball. Place on baking pan. Mixture should yield approximately 16 meatballs.
  • Heat oven to 350° F (175° C) and place meatballs in oven for 30 minutes.
  • Take zucchini (from Zucchini Noodles recipe by LittleMamaMickey) and use a potato peeler to cut strips. Heat olive oil in pan and cook zucchini noodles for 1-3 minutes.
  • Open large canned tomatoes and place in pot. Break up tomatoes with a fork. Heat to desired temperature.
  • Place "noodles" in bowl, add 3 large meatballs, top with tomato sauce, sprinkle parmesan cheese and you are good to go.
  • Enjoy!
