Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 500g beef mince
- ½ cup rice crumbs or gluten free bread crumbs
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese, plus extra for garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus extra for garnish
- Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 500g jar of Leggo’s Classic Tomato Pasta Sauce
- 3 large zucchinis
Steps:
- 1. Combine mince, breadcrumbs, egg, parmesan cheese, parsley and lemon zest in a large bowl. Form into small balls.
- 2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large deep sided frypan over high heat. Add meatballs and cook for 5 minutes or until browned on the outside, turning regularly. Reduce heat to low and add Leggo’s Pasta Sauce. Simmer covered for 15 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through.
- 3. Meanwhile, to make zoodles, peel zucchini lengthways using a julienne peeler to make long strands resembling spaghetti. Place a heat proof bowl, season well and cover with boiling water. Stand for 2 minutes before draining.
- 4. Place zoodles in a bowl. Top with meatballs and sauce. Garnish with extra parmesan cheese and parsley leaves.
