Week 16 - Ground Turkey meatballs

These were delicious.  Sorry but no pictures.

1 pound ground turkey
1 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup parmesan
1 egg
some salt and pepper
some fresh basil (cuz I happened to have it)

Mix together, shape into balls.  Place onto a broiler pan. 

Broil on the lower rack for 12-15 minutes, pull out and then turn and do a few more minutes till it is crispy everywhere on the outside.  (My low rack is pretty far from the boiler, if yours is not then watch them more closely -- broilers are great, but I do burn things quite often using them because I turn my back for 2 seconds!!!)

I served with mashed potatoes, white gravy and lingonberry sauce -- just like IKEA or Sweden -- only much yummier and with far fewer calories!!!

Southwest egg rolls-- week 4

 

 

 

This is an easy meal all my kids love.

Brown ground turkey in a skillet with fajita seasoning.
When turkey is thouroughly cooked add a can of black beans (drained and rinsed)
Then add a cup or so of frozen corn.

Fill flour tortillas with the mixture and also add grated cheese.
Fold them up tightly and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Eat with lots of lettuce, tomatoes, salsa and cilantro jalapeno ranch!
