Turkey Meatballs


Who doesn't love meatballs? They are so versatile. 

I am a big believer in getting kids to help in the kitchen as soon as they are able. It's a great way to bond, teach how to cook, and teach healthy eating habits. This recipe is perfect for that. Between mixing with your hands and rolling into little balls- what a great opportunity to cook a meal with your family that your kids will actually have fun with!

I love everything about these! They are easy to make, healthy, great for freezing, fast, can bring a family together in the kitchen, AND toddler approved! Need I say any more?

Oh, and I didn't even mention that these little gems are 21 day fix and fix extreme approved. That's where I got this recipes.

Anyways, here it goes:
Ingredients:
-nonstick cooking spray
-1.5 lbs of raw 93% lean ground turkey breast
-1 tsp sea salt
-1 tsp dry mustard
-1 tsp paprika 
-1 large egg- slightly beaten
-3/4 cup quick cooking rolled oats
-2 cloves of garlic, minced
-2 tbsp tomato sauce- no sugar added

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
2. Lightly coat large baking sheet with spray- set aside.
3. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; mix well by hand.
4. Roll mixture into 30 1 inch meatballs. Place on prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink in the center.
