I love baking meatballs because it makes clean-up a breeze! They are also versatile.
Miles likes his plain with ketchup. The rest of us like ours in a marinara sauce. If I feel like a lighter meal, I make easy instant pot spaghetti squash alongside it.
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground turkey (you could use beef if you prefer!)
1/3 cup gluten free 1:1 flour (or breadcrumbs if not gluten free)
1/2 cup diced onions
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 egg
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tbsp dried parsley
Directions:
1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place parchment paper on a cookie sheet, or coat with cooking spray. (Parchment paper makes clean up even easier).
2: Mix together onion, bread crumbs, garlic, egg, cheese, and spices.
3: Add in ground turkey and mix until combined.
4: Form into 1-inch balls and place on prepared cookie sheet.
5: Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and cook for another 10 minutes.
