A Healthier Meatball
If you are like me, you don't always get all those good for you veggies in everyday. And there is the having toddlers thing... I am very lucky because my boys never give me a hard time when it comes to fruits and veggies but the way I figure the more the better right!?! I had some lean ground turkey that I needed to use, so what to make... So you have a package of ground turkey... what do you go for? I figured this is an easy way to work some extra healthy stuff into the boys, myself and the hubs! I came up with a simple meatball recipe that is far from the traditional version and it is super tasty! And its been toddler approved ;-)

You can certainly throw these into some sauce and serve with pasta. I gave them to my boys with a little sauce and melted mozzarella. For myself I thew them over some brown rice mixed with sautéed onions and peas. You can throw them over a salad as an alternative to chicken... so many options for these little bites of yumminess!
