These tender-baked turkey and spinach meatballs are packed with veggies and protein! Enjoy them over whole grain pasta, zucchini noodles or a bed of spagehtti squash. I love adding them to my weekend meal prep, so I have them on hand for easy weeknight meals.

Categories     DINNER     meal prep

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds ground turkey ((I use one extra lean and one regular))
2/3 cup finley diced onion, (about half of a small onion)
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, (minced)
10 ounces frozen spinach, (defrosted and strained of excess water)
1/2 cup Romano cheese
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1 egg, (beaten)
2 egg whites, (1/4 cup)
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1.5 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 cups tomato sauce*

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchement paper (or spray with cooking spray).
  • Add ground turkey to a large bowl along with the onions, mushrooms, spinach, Romano cheese, panko breadcrumbs, egg, egg whites, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Use your hands to gently combine all of the ingredients together.
  • Scoop a heaping tablespoon of the mixture and roll into a ball. If the mixture is very sticky, wet your hands to make this process easier.
  • Place the meatball on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until you have used all of the meat. You should have 35-40 meatballs when you are done.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or untl the internal tempertaure of the meatballs reaches 165ºF.
  • *OPTIONAL: heat tomato sauce in a large saue pan or shallow pot (I like to use my cast-iron skillet) and transfer cooked meatballs into the sauce. Simmer for 5-10 minutes, serve and enjoy!

BAKED SPINACH, FETA, AND TURKEY MEATBALLS



Baked Spinach, Feta, and Turkey Meatballs image

These spinach, feta, and turkey meatballs are quick and easy to make, easy to freeze, and taste great when reheated. My son and I call these "Combine Nuggets." Did you know that a combine is a giant tractor that harvests crops from the field? Well, I most certainly didn't until my 3-year-old told me! Therefore, thanks to the hardworking combines we can put the green things in our nuggets.

Hi, I picked this up on a website somewhere and tweeked it a little. It is "calorie friendly" and low colesterol. Its very good with or without pasta.

Categories     Turkey

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 c old fashion or instant oatmeal (uncooked)
1/4 c plain greek yogurt
1/4 c water
1 c fresh chopped spinach
1/4 c fresh chopped basil or 1 tsp dried basil leaves
1/4 c grated romano cheese ( or similar)
1 egg
1 lb ground turkey
3 clove garlic - minced (divided in half)
1 tsp salt and pepper
1 tsp olive oil or olive oil spray
1 - 28 oz can(s) diced tomatoes (w/ italian seasonings)
1/2 c dry red wine
8 oz pasta of choice

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 400˚. Mix oats and yogurt with 1/4 cup water in a bowl until oats begin to absorb liquid. Add spinach, basil, grated cheese, egg , "half" the garlic, salt and pepper, and stir. Add turkey and mix until well combined.
  • 2. Form into 2-inch meatballs (about 28). Coat a large, oven-safe, 12" sauté pan, casserole dish, or stockpot with olive oil/spray. Add meatballs -- bake uncovered on bottom rack, until they begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Turn and bake 10 minutes more.
  • 3. Add remaining garlic, undrained tomatoes, and wine. Cover and cook until meatballs are cooked through and sauce begins to thicken, 25 minutes. (The sauce is not very thick, but its a nice sauce - add a tsp. tomato paste if you want thicker sauce.) Serve immediately with pasta and extra grated cheese. YUM!

BAKED TURKEY AND SPINACH MEATBALLS WITH ORZO



Baked Turkey and Spinach Meatballs with Orzo image

Since ground turkey can be dry, we used a flavorful spinach and garlic paste here to help keep it moist. The paste does double duty and helps cut prep time, since it's also used as the flavoring base for the orzo.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 5-ounce package baby spinach (about 8 cups)
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 pound ground turkey
3/4 cup panko
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup orzo
1 1/2 cups frozen artichoke quarters, coarsely chopped
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 425˚ F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine half of the spinach, the onion and garlic in a food processor; pulse to make a coarse paste. Transfer all but 1/4 cup of the paste to a large bowl.
  • Add the turkey, panko, egg and 1/4 cup Parmesan to the bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and mix to combine. Form into 12 meatballs and place on the baking sheet.
  • Bake the meatballs until golden and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Switch the oven to broil and broil the meatballs until browned on top, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the orzo and artichokes and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the reserved 1/4 cup spinach paste, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; stir to coat the orzo. Pour in the chicken broth, bring to a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the broth is absorbed and the orzo is saucy but still al dente, about 10 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water and the remaining spinach; bring to a simmer, uncovered. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts but is still bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
  • Divide the orzo among shallow bowls. Top with the meatballs.

TURKEY MEATBALLS WITH SPINACH AND FETA



Turkey Meatballs with Spinach and Feta image

Hands-down the best baked turkey meatballs that are juicy and won't fall apart! A slice of soaked toasted bread adds moisture to the meatballs and works with an egg and some good olive oil to bind the meat mixture together. Serve these ground turkey meatballs with salad, or in my rich homemade pasta sauce over pasta or rice. Also delicious as an appetizer to feed a crowd!

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups baby spinach
1 slice whole wheat bread (crust removed)
1 pound ground turkey
1 yellow onion (grated)

1/2 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
1 egg (beaten)
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon dried crushed mint
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Toast the bread until just brown then transfer it to a bowl and add water to cover. Allow it to soak for about 5 minutes or until very tender. Discard the water and squeeze the bread very dry and crumble it a bit with your hands.
  • In a skillet heat 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Add the spinach and cook briefly over medium heat until just wilted. Remove from the heat and let cool briefly.
  • Make the meatball mixture. In a large mixing bowl, add the ground turkey, onions, garlic, crumbled feta, egg, parsley, and mint. Add the bread and wilted spinach. Season with a big pinch of kosher salt and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
