Oh!
Hi.
I didn't see you there.
You're actually a little bit early but that's fine
I'm just sitting down to eat dinner
I'm having my italian turkey meatballs tonight
But where is my sauce?
I can't have meatballs without sauce
Oh!
There we go
Alright
Wait a second... is that
SUGAR?
That's what I get for buying store bought sauce!
With store bought sauces, be sure to always check the nutrition label for sugar
It may SHOCK you
This half cup of store bought sauce has more sugar than this chocolate frosted donut!
So not all store bought sauces are terrible
But nothing beats a homemade pasta sauce
Both nutritionally and in flavor
My homemade sauce has only 3 grams of sugar, all of which are natural
And it's significantly lower in calories
In a pot over medium heat add olive oil, onions and garlic
Cook one to two minutes until onions begin to look translucent
Add crushed tomatoes, carrots, celery, fresh basil, dry basil
Dry oregano, salt and pep, red pepper flakes, and a bit of water
Alright, so you're gonna need to let that simmer for about thirty minutes
Which leaves you just enough time to get in a quick home workout
Today I'm gonna show you one of my favorite home workout options
Using a piece of equipment you probably have and don't even know...
PAPER PLATES
The
sauce should be done
Very good lots of flavor, you can really taste the fresh basil
The carrots and celery give it a nice earthiness
And it even has a little kick from that red pepper
Why don't we give those meatballs another shot
Let's try this again
That is more like it
