Dinner - Turkey Meatballs With Marinara


I've got to get a Bob Harper recipe up here! I have used a lot of his recipes over the years. This one can be modified for a dinner meal. Check out his books for other good meal ideas!

Turkey Meatballs With Marinara
From The Skinny Rules by Bob Harper

1 pound extra-lean ground turkey
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 cup cooked zucchini 
Olive oil spray
Jar of marinara or “awesome sauce”

Combine all the ingredients except the olive oil in a large mixing bowl and shape into about 30 meatballs 1 inch across. 


Spray a large nonstick skillet generously with olive oil.  Cook the meatballs for 5 to 6 minutes, working in batches if your pan is not large enough to fit them all, occasionally moving them around to brown all sides. Add a jar of marinara and heat through.
