10 garlic cloves, chopped (5 for the meatballs and 5 for the zucchini pasta) (.90)
1 large onion, cut in half, chopped (1/2 for the meatballs and ½ for the zucchini pasta) (.50)

2 tbsp. Angie’s basting olive oil (.40)
1 ½ c. of beef stock (.60)
1 tbsp. cornstarch (.10)
Sazón seasoning to-taste (.10)
2 corn ears, boil in lightly salted water until tender ($1.20)
1 avocado ($1.25)
 
Directions
Prepare all the ingredients as listed under the ingredients list.
Start boiling the corn until tender. Remove and drain.
Season the ground chicken with Sazón, ½ tsp. basting oil, some garlic, onion, celery and make small size balls.

Next, add 1 tbsp. of my basting olive oil to a skillet and sauté the chicken meatballs briefly until golden brown and almost done. Remove set aside.

Make a sauce, by dissolving 1 tbsp. of cornstarch in 1 ½ to 2 c. of beef stock or broth, add ½ tsp. of Sazón seasoning and cook over med stirring until the liquid thickens into a nice looking gravy. Add the chicken balls and simmer for about 4 minutes.
​
Next, add some of my basting oil to a skillet and when warm enough, sauté the onion, garlic, and celery until golden. Then add the zucchini spirals and continue sautéing until a bit translucent.
Slice the avocado, drain the corn and start plating by adding some of the zucchini to a plate, top with the meatballs and gravy, add the corn and avocado sides and boom, dinner is ready.
