PER SERVING 270 CALORIES TOTAL TIME 30 MINUTES GROCERIES 7 INGREDIENTS
Makes: 4 servings
Serving size: 4 meatballs
1lb (450g) lean ground turkey
1 egg
¾ cup panko bread crumbs
¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
½ medium red bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, bread crumbs, feta, bell pepper, kosher salt, and black pepper. Using clean hands, mix the ingredients until well combined and then roll into 16 equal-sized meatballs.
Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). (Be sure to use a thermometer!)
Remove the meatballs from the oven and set aside to cool slightly before serving. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
{TIP}
For a bolder Mediterranean flavor, add 1 teaspoon dried oregano to the turkey mixture.
