really tasty and rich.

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  2. 1 pound Pure Farmland® Plant-Based Homestyle Meatballs
  3. 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  4. ¾ cup grape tomatoes (10-12 tomatoes)
  5. 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  6. 2 large green zucchini, spiralized (about 1.5lbs, before spiralized)
  7. ⅓ cup prepared basil pesto
  8. ¼ cup roasted almonds, roughly chopped
  9. 1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan cheese for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, then the meatballs. Cook, turning frequently, until even golden brown and heated through the center, 8 to 10 minutes total. Remove from skillet to a paper towel-lined plate. Once skillet is cool enough to handle, wipe clean with paper towel.
  2. Return skillet to medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil, tomatoes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until slightly golden and just tender (but not burst). Remove to a plate.
  3. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil, then zucchini noodles. Season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir very gently to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes or until zoodles are slightly tender. Add the pesto and stir gently to combine.
  4. Transfer to a large serving platter and top with meatballs, tomatoes, roasted almonds, and Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.

I’ve made this three tiniest and am surprised others haven’t reviewed it. We love this, it’s really meaty and tastes so good. Once I couldn’t find meatless meatballs so I used ground beef and it was wonderful!
