//Lean Turkey Meatballs
serves 5

2 lbs of Lean, Organic, Hormone-Free Ground Turkey
3 Organic Cage free Egg whites
1/2 c of Organic Quick Oats
2 tsp of Dry Mustard
2 tsp of Ground Pepper
1 tsp of Red Pepper Flakes
1 tsp of Salt
1/2 Bunch of Fresh Organic Basil, finely chopped
3-7 Sprigs of Fresh Organic Thyme (remove from stem)
3 Sprigs of Fresh Oregano, finely chopped
3 tbs of Double Concentrate Tomato Paste
1/2 of a Medium Organic Yellow Onion, finely chopped
6-8 Organic White Button Mushrooms, finely chopped
2 Organic Celery Stalks, finely chopped
2 Organic Carrots, finely chopped
2 tablespoons of Organic Olive Oil
1 jar Organic Gluten Free Marinara Sauce, I like Organicville.
2 tbs of torn Organic Fresh Basil

Fresh Parmesan to garnish

{KEEP YOUR HANDS WET WHILE SHAPING THE MEATBALLS TO PREVENT STICKING.}

Preheat Oven to 375 degrees.  Mix all ingredients excepts olive oil, marinara sauce & 2 tablespoons of torn basil in a Large Bowl and form 1 inch size balls.  Heat Olive oil in a large skillet over medium to high heat and sauté meatballs in batches (don't overcrowd)  until lightly browned about 5 minutes (be sure to flip meatballs so all sides get golden).  Then place in a shallow casserole dish with Marinara Sauce in Oven until bubbly and cooked throughout. (be sure to not overcook) Before serving, scatter 2 tablespoons of torn basil on top of meatballs and sauce.  Serve with Quinoa Linguine Pasta or Spaghetti Squash.  
Garnish with fresh Parmesan.  
Bon Appétit,
