TURKEY AND QUINOA MEATBALLS
I developed this recipe with turkey and quinoa, but have since used it successfully with just about every type of ground meat and variety of grain. The addition of grains not only adds nutritional value and keeps the texture light, but also helps those on a budget stretch a small amount of quality meat into a bigger meal. It's simple, clean, nutritious eating but will please even the pickiest of meatloaf lovers. Make extra grains and serve those alongside a green salad, steamed asparagus, or roasted vegetables. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add celery, onion, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Mix ketchup, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce together in a small bowl.
- Combine turkey, quinoa, eggs, parsley, sage, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl. Add celery mixture and 1/3 cup of the ketchup mixture; mix until well-combined.
- Spread 1/3 cup of the ketchup mixture on the bottom of two 9-inch square baking dishes. Form turkey mixture into meatballs with damp hands. Pour remaining 1/3 cup of the ketchup mixture over the meatballs.
- Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are no longer pink in the center and ketchup mixture is thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.

THE BEST TURKEY MEATBALLS
These juicy meatballs with a tender, light texture are packed with flavorful herbs. The meat mixture is softer than you might expect, thanks to the addition of ricotta, but sacrificing a perfectly round shape is worth it. You'll make these turkey meatballs so often you just might forget about your beef meatball recipe.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle the olive oil and canola oil in an even layer over the paper.
- Pour the breadcrumbs into a large mixing bowl, pour the milk over top and stir to fully moisten the breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and mix with your hands just until combined.
- Scoop 1/4-cupfuls of meatball mixture and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet; you should have 12 meatballs. Gently roll them into balls. Bake until bottoms are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and continue to bake for 15 to 20 minutes more until the meatballs are cooked through.

BAKED TURKEY MEATBALLS WITH QUINOA
This easy recipe is a lighter take on an Italian comfort food favorite. We're bypassing the ground beef and skipping the spaghetti but still packing a whole lot of flavor into each spherical bite. Breadcrumbs soaked in milk help seal in the moisture, while baking the meatballs in a mini muffin pan helps them brown evenly (but a baking pan works well, too!).

Steps:

- Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa according to package directions.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, garlic, parsley, Parmesan, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the soaked breadcrumb mixture. Use your hands to thoroughly combine the mixture and then shape it into balls using 2 to 3 tablespoons of meat per meatball.
- Arrange the meatballs in the muffin pan or in a single layer in the prepared baking pan. Bake until the meatballs are cooked through, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line 2 large baking sheets with unbleached parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Or I love using silicone baking mats, no oil necessary. In a large bowl, add ground turkey, zucchini, eggs, garlic, onion flakes, oregano, salt and pepper; mix well with your hands.
- Using small cookie scoop form 47 meatballs (it helps to dip hands in a bowl with cold water occasionally) and lay on baking sheets.
- Bake for 15 minutes, turn and toss with spatula (mostly to get rid off of that ground turkey residue) and bake for 5 more minutes. Serve hot.
- Serve hot as an appetizer or main dish.

Steps:
- Cook quinoa to directions on packaging, except I cook quinoa in chicken broth (vegetable, chicken, beef broth are all fine) Broth adds much more flavor. Once it is cooked you will only need 1 cup for the recipe.
- While quinoa is cooking, can chop the onions. It should yield about 1/4 cup. Chop and crush the fresh garlic. Chop up the thyme. Mince carrot into tiny pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, egg, flour, onion, garlic, carrot, thyme, and quinoa Thoroughly mix it with the ground turkey and combine into bite size meatballs, slightly smaller than a golf ball.
- In a large skillet, heat a thin layer of oil over medium to high heat. Start with about 1/2 tbsp to coat the pan. Add almonds in skillet. When warm, cook 10 meatballs at a time, or whatever fits in the pan without them touching. May sprinkle additional almonds on top of the meatballs. Make sure the almonds cook on the surface of the meatball. Keep an eye on the meatballs, turn them about every 1-2 minutes, they should be ready in about 8 minutes, all sides should be golden brown.
- Add a small amount of salt, to taste. Feel free to add any of your personal favorite seasonings, like italian seasoning. For more flavor, sprinkle onion and/or garlic powder on meatballs while cooking.

- In a large bowl, combine turkey, quinoa, garlic, beaten egg, olive oil, cheese, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly but quickly, just so the ingredients are combined – do not overmix! Roll into mini balls – slightly smaller than a golfball, and place on a baking sheet.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat (mine was actually almost high) and add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Add meatballs, searing on the top and bottom until golden, about 1 minute per side. To flip meatballs, gently toss with a spoon. I also shook the pan a few times to roll the meatballs around – if you pan is hot enough this works! Add meatballs one at a time to the crockpot. Repeat with remaining meatballs – it is okay to stack them once they are all finished.
- Once all the meatballs are in the crockpot, add the other can of crushed tomatoes, completely submerging the meatballs. Cook on low for 6 hours. Serve!

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees then coat a rimmed baking sheet with non-stick spray. In a large bowl, add ground turkey, cooked quinoa, garlic, egg, olive oil, cheese, basil, oregano, onion powder, salt and pepper. With your hands or a wooden spoon, mix ingredients together gently, but thoroughly.
- Portion turkey mixture into cocktail-sized meatballs, somewhere between the size of a ping-pong ball and a golf ball—using the same size scoop that you make cookies with will make fast work of this! Roll mixture between both palms until you achieve a smooth surface on the outside of the meatball—this process will ensure that the meatballs will not fall apart in the sauce. Space meatballs evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place tray in oven and let bake for 12 minutes. While meatballs are baking, add crushed tomatoes, basil, oregano and bay leaves into slow cooker and mix well.
- Remove meatballs from oven then let cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to the sauce. Cook on low for 6–8 hours then taste the sauce for seasoning—if the sauce is a bit acidic, add a pinch of sugar to balance it out. Don't forget to remove the bay leaves before serving. They are indigestible!
