Low-Calorie Veggie and Turkey Meatballs
Ingredients
1 lb ground turkey
1/2 cup broccoli lightly steamed, finely chopped
1/2 cup kale finely chopped; may substitute spinach
1/2 cup carrot finely chopped
2 tbsp cilantro fresh, finely chopped, may substitute basil or parsley
1 large egg beaten
2 tbsp butter melted, may substitute ghee
1 tbsp coconut flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions
Preheat oven to 400*F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or place a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet.
Combine all meatball ingredients in a large bowl until well combined.
Roll about 28-30 meatballs and place on baking sheet. (You can use an ice cream scoop for this step to get uniform balls)
Bake for 15-18 minutes, until cooked through and slightly golden.
A food processor speeds up the process of chopping the vegetables!
