  1. Heat the broiler. Cut 1/2 in. from the top and bottom of the squash, then cut in half lengthwise. Microwave the squash on a plate on high, cut-side down, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Scoop out and discard the seeds. With a fork, gently scrape the strands of flesh into a bowl.

  2. Meanwhile, warm the marinara sauce in a large skillet over low heat.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, sausage, carrot, garlic, parsley, egg white, bread crumbs, oil and cheese. Form the meat into 2-in. balls (about 12) and place them on a broilerproof baking sheet. Broil until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the meatballs to the sauce and toss to coat. Serve the meatballs and sauce over the squash.
