Ingredients
2poundslean ground turkey(approximately 1 kilo)
1smallred onionminced
3/4cupgrated carrot
2/3cupchopped spinach(fresh is best as frozen gives off too much liquid)
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.
Notes
These meatballs can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, and in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month.
