INGREDIENTS
- 1 lbs Ground turkey
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg white
- 1 Carrot ; (large) quartered
- 1/2 Cucumber ; (large) quartered
- 1 Green Pepper ; diced
- 8-10 Brussels Sprouts ; diced
- 3-4 cups Baby spinach ; diced
INSTRUCTIONS
***Salt, Pepper, & Worcestershire sauce to flavor (additional spices may by used, just depends on preference)***
I might suggest chopping all the ingredients prior to actually beginning the cooking.
In a small mixing bowl, place the Spinach, Brussels sprouts, Carrot, Cucumber, and Green Pepper. Season the vegetable mixture with a light drizzle of oil, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper. (*These ingredients can be placed in at the pleasure of the
I might suggest preheating the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit once all the ingredients have been chopped up.
Mix everything. This next step requires one to add the vegetable mixture to the following ingredients: egg + egg white and Ground Turkey; into a large mixing bowl. Hand-toss the meat with the vegetables.
Next, roll a portion of meat concoction into a ball (size varies depending on preference). Repeat the process 12-16 times. Once the meatballs have been rolled, it is time to wrap them in Bacon. Depending on the size of the meatball rolled, 1 piece of bacon will do just fine, two pieces if necessary. Repeat process 12-16 times. Finally, place the meatballs into a slightly oiled, large cooking dish (*I prefer glass). Cook for approximately 48-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature is between 170-180 degrees Fahrenheit.
