21 Day Fix Meatballs and "Spaghetti"

We are about to take measurements for Day 30!!!  So excited to see how much progress we've made!  I'll report in with measurements to let you guys know how the program has worked for us.  I definitely feel better than I did a month ago, and increasing weights has been great for me.  I have been sore, but in a good way.  I'm glad to be feeling stronger, and looking forward to the next 30 days of the program!

The below recipe has been a hit this week!  Even the "picky" eater in the family chowed down on the meatballs, which was a pleasant sight!  These meatballs were easy and fast; finding a store bought marinara definitely helps because we didn't have any homemade sauce frozen.  Nice to just throw in a prepared jar!  We just added a few sauteed mushrooms on the side.  Enjoy!

21 Day Fix Meatballs
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/2 cup ground carrots
3 cloves garlic
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp salt
Zucchini noodles or whole wheat pasta noodles
Marinara sauce (homemade or store bought with no added sugar)

Grease baking sheet with olive oil.  Mix together ground beef and next 5 ingredients, and form meatballs into size of golf balls.  Place onto greased baking sheet.  Bake at 425 degrees for about 10 - 12 minutes.  Serve meatballs over zucchini noodles or whole wheat pasta noodles, top with marinara sauce.

21 Day Fix Challengers - 3 meatballs equals 1 red, zucchini noodles mixed with marinara sauce equals 1 green (Note, if you do not find a marinara sauce that is no sugar added, you will need to count the sauce as a purple, not a green.  See video from Autumn explaining the difference.)

Marinara Sauce - Green or Purple?
