It ended up being a combination of a few recipes.
The noodles:4 sweet potatoes
1 T extra virgin olive oil
sea salt to taste
Zoodle the sweet potatoes (we ended up with four ends that wouldn't fit through the machine, so it was more like 2 potatoes worth).
Heat a skillet with the olive oil.
Add the sweet potatoes
Season with sea salt (and pepper if you wish)
Cook for 5-7 minutes until the "noodles" are soft and not raw. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
The meatballs (based on this recipe):
1 T olive oil
1/2 C onion, grated
1 carrot, peeled and grated
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tea dried oregano
1 tea. sea sat
1 pound ground turkey
1/2 C coconut flour
1 egg
1 tea sage
1/4 tea. pepper
While you're grating the onion, save the rest to chop for the sauce.
Add the olive oil, onion, carrot, garlic, oregano and salt to a skillet and cook until sowft. Combine the rest of the ingredients and mix in with the turkey. Roll the mixture into meatballs, about the size of golf balls. (I halved the original recipe and it made 15)
Tomato Sauce:
2 T olive oil
1/4 C onion, diced
2 tea minced garlic
2 cans diced tomato
1 can tomato sauce
1 T basil
1 tea oregano
1 tea salt
Saute the olive oil, onion, and garlic in a large sauce pan til the onion is soft. Add the diced tomato with juice and tomato sauce, and the spices. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low or medium low and add the meatballs.
Simmer for 30 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through. Serve over zoodles - with Parmesan cheese optional.
It tastes like a restaurant, or like someone who has marinara running through their veins made it. Definitely will make again!
