I don’t know about you, but I love sneaking extra veggies into our daily meals and snacks in every which way. These Easy Turkey Veggie Meatballs are one of my favourite recipes – I make them all the time just to have on hand for adding into pasta sauces, or serving as a quick main dish (instead of frozen chicken fingers or other not-so-healthy things from the freezer section!) for an easy meal. They’re made with lean turkey meat and packed with carrots and spinach! 
My kids love these Easy Turkey Veggie Meatballs, and this busy mom loves them too – they’re so easy to throw together all in one bowl, and then simply roll and bake for about 20 minutes and they’re good to go! I love to make a double or triple batch for the freezer to have on hand to save even more time!

Easy Turkey Veggie Meatballs
Recipe: Ingredients
- 2 pounds lean ground turkey (approximately 1 kilo)
- 1 small red onion minced
- 3/4 cup grated carrot
- 2/3 cup chopped spinach (fresh is best as frozen gives off too much liquid)
- 2/3 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Recipe: Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or aluminum foil (if using aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray).
- Add the turkey meat to a large bowl, along with all the other ingredients. Mix together very well with a wooden spoon or your hands, making sure every ingredient is evenly distributed.
- Roll into balls about the size of one and a half tablespoons. Be sure all the meatballs are the same size so they bake evenly.
- Add the meatballs to the prepared baking tray and bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reach 165 Fahrenheit (74 Celsius).
- Serve immediately, or let cool and store in the fridge in an airtight container.
