Apple Turkey Fingers (For Older Infants & Toddlers)

• 1 lb ground turkey
• 2 medium carrots
• 1 large apple
• 1 garlic clove
• 1/2 small onion
• 1/2 egg, beaten
• 1/4 cup unprocessed natural bran
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
• salt & pepper (optional)

1. Preheat broiler.
2. Place ground turkey in a large mixing bowl.
3. In a food processor or by hand, grate the carrot, apple, garlic & onion, or else mince very finely (I grated the carrots using a microplane, but minced the apple, onion and garlic for texture). Add to bowl with turkey.
4. Add the 1/2 beaten egg (or whole egg for older kids), bran, thyme and any seasonings you wish. Mix all ingredients together.
5. Scoop mixture up about 1/4 cup at a time (size of a large meatball) and roll into little sausage shapes, placing on a broiling pan or cookie sheet as you go (you may need to do two pans worth). Wet your hands periodically if it's sticky.
6. Place in broiler and broil for 10-15 minutes on one side, then turn over and broil 5-10 minutes more.
7. Remove and let cool. Store together in a freezer bag or individually wrapped in foil.
8. Enjoy!
