Instructions
1 To prep spaghetti squash, preheat oven to 425F.

While it’s baking, prep your marinara + meatballs! 3 Prepare garlic basil chicken meatballs by mixing all ingredients together and roll into balls. Preheat a large skillet with olive oil and cook meatballs on skillet until browned and cooked throughout. 4 In a large skillet, prepare marinara sauce mixture by cooking red onion with garlic cloves in olive oil.
