Italian Turkey Meatballs

I still love spaghetti with meatballs from time to time... and especially in this crazy weather, I could use some comfort food!


Meatballs

  • 1# ground turkey
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 TBSP oregano
  • 3/4 TBSP dried rosemary (I tried to crush mine up into smaller bits)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp basil
  • hot pepper flakes to taste
  • salt/ pepper

Mix all of the above ingredients. Roll into 1-2 inch balls and place on a greased baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 350 for 25 minutes (or until meat is cooked).

I use a spaghetti squash instead of noodles-- just poke some holes in the squash and put it in the microwave for 10 minutes (turn it once around 5 minutes)...and let it cool before you handle it. 

Serve the hot "noodles" and meatballs with your favorite sauce... and maybe some fresh Parmesan cheese if you're feeling frisky. Pairs nicely with dark chocolate for dessert. :-)
