When were on our health kick or putting our weight loss into over drive...all we have is chicken, turkey, and veggies as far as the eye can see. OVER IT.
(Well, for dinners. Breakfast and lunch has healthy carbs/fruits/dairy incorporated)
I figured out a way to trick ourselves into enjoying ground turkey again (for the time being).
MEATBALLS! All sorts of different types of meatballs!
Today I'm sharing my two favorites so far!
The {not really} Fried Artichoke Turkey Meatball
obviously without the pasta you can do some Quinoa, whole wheat pasta, orzo, just on a bed of cooked spinach, whatever tickles your fancy.
Last night I made...

Ghetto-All-I-Had-In-My-Fridge-Sauce
-Cherry toms
-garlic
-onion
-extra virg olive oil
-basil
-salt/pep
-Simmer everything together until saucy! haha really that's it! Just use about 1-2tbs evoo in the "sauce" to thin it out. You may need to pop and smash the tomatoes in the pan after a little bit to get the sauce going faster :)
To plate...
Orzo, meatballs, sauce! With Zucchini on the side :) Tahdah!
OK- I am thinking.yes! This sounds like yumm-o Jess!!
