A Healthier Meatball
- 1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 apple peeled and cut away from the core
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/2 cup quick cooking oats
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- salt
- pepper
- Oven at 375 degrees
- In a food processor add the shredded carrots and apple. Pulse until very finely chopped.
- Place all ingredients into a bowl and mix until well combined. Form meatballs into a golf ball size. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake for 15-18 minutes, until lightly golden.
- You can certainly throw these into some sauce and serve with pasta. I gave them to my boys with a little sauce and melted mozzarella. For myself I thew them over some brown rice mixed with sauteed onions and peas. You can throw them over a salad as an alternative to chicken... so many options for these little bites of yumminess!
