Healthy Spinach Meatballs With Spicy Sriracha Marinara

• Meatballs
• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 lb ground turkey
• 1 (16 ounce) bag frozen chopped spinach, thawed & squeezed dry (or 1 1/2 10 oz pkgs)
• 1/3 cup plain dried breadcrumbs
• 3 egg whites
• 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano (I used Italian seasoning, because I had that on hand)
• course salt & pepper
• nonstick cooking spray
• Spicy Sriracha Marinara
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 3 -4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
• 1/4 cup sriracha sauce (use less if you're less adventurous!)
• 1 (16 ounce) box whole wheat spaghetti
• 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

1. Heat broiler, with rack in top position.
2. Place pork, turkey, spinach, breadcrumbs, egg whites, oregano, 1 1/2 tsps salt & 1/2 tsp pepper in a large bowl.
3. With your hands, mix to combine. Roll into 1 - 1 1/2 inch meatballs. Arrange meatballs on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly coat with cooking spray. Broil for 5 minutes. Turn meatballs and broil another 5 minutes, until golden brown.
4. In a large heavy pot, heat oil over medium. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 6 minutes.
5. Add tomatoes and Sriracha and bring to a simmer.
6. Add meatballs and simmer at least 10 minutes. (To store, let cool, then refrigerate in an airtight container, up to 1 week, or freeze, up to 3 months).
7. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain pasta, add to pot with meatballs and gently toss to coat.
8. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. Enjoy :).
