Ingredients
-
1 pound ground beef
-
¼ white onion, chopped
-
1 ½ teaspoons garlic salt
-
salt and ground black pepper to taste
-
2 zucchini
-
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
-
1 tablespoon oil, or as needed
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Combine ground beef, onion, garlic salt, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix well. Shape into 1 1/2-inch balls. Arrange meatballs in a glass baking pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are browned, about 20 minutes.
-
Cut zucchini into noodle shapes with a spiralizer.
-
Heat tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium heat; add meatballs. Reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, until sauce and meatballs are evenly warmed, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; keep covered.
-
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until tender but firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Transfer zucchini to a serving plate; top with tomato sauce and meatballs.
Cook's Notes:
I use grass-fed beef.
Substitute pasta sauce for the tomato sauce if desired.
