At only 365 calories per serving (including the green beans I paired with it) this is a great, quick way to have pasta for dinner without blowing your diet!

INGREDIENTS
(measurements are for 1 serving but in the pictures I made 2 servings)
3 oz Extra Lean Ground Turkey
1 Egg White (3 Tbsp of All Whites)
1 Tbsp Seasoned Bread Crumbs
1 oz Whole Wheat Pasta of your choice (usually about 1/2 cup cooked)
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Pasta Sauce
(I use Classico Tomato and Basil because it is lower in sodium and calories than most other sauces. Trad. Sweet Basil is only shown below because I had left overs and bought it before I realized it has more calories)
1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees
2. Place ground turkey, bread crumbs, and egg white in bowl and mix together
4. Place in oven and cook for approximately 10-15 minutes
5. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to the instructions
6. Place pasta in a bowl with meatballs, sauce and cheese then microwave for 30 seconds to melt cheese
7. I paired this with Steam-in-the-bag green beans (1 cup per serving) which I microwaved while cooking
