Trying to cut out carbs means on pasta night the kids get pasta and the parents get zoodles. We try not to emphasize too much on diet to the kids. But when Baby Girl asks why we are not eating pasta or noodles I usually just tell her we are trying to eat more vegetables. Baby Girl has not expressed how she feels about zucchini yet.
Turkey Meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1lb ground turkey
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350F
- In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, salt, garlic, Italian seasoning, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and mix well. Add milk, Parmesan cheese, and Panko bread crumbs. Mix until evenly blended.
- Form 1-2 inch balls. I use a cookie scoop.
- Bake on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes
The hardest part of this meal is the zoodles. We use a hand held spiral and it is work. But hey, no pain no gain. After using the spiral I use some paper towels to try to squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible. Then it's some butter in a pan and fry up the zoodles. I am going to keep in real and tell you I also throw in some garlic salt.
Keep cooking Friends!
XOXO
