Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Ground Turkey
  • 1/2 cup Breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 Onion, finely chopped
  • 2 Carrots, chopped

  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach or Kale
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the meatballs: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, egg, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  2. Shape the meatballs: Using your hands, form the meat mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Brown the meatballs: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat and carefully add the meatballs, browning them on all sides for 5-7 minutes.
  4. Sauté the vegetables: Remove the meatballs and add chopped onions, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
  5. Add the broth and tomatoes: Pour in the broth and diced tomatoes, scraping up any stuck bits. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Return the meatballs: Gently return the browned meatballs to the pot and let them simmer in the broth for about 10-15 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Incorporate the greens: In the last 5 minutes, stir in the fresh spinach or kale and allow it to wilt.
  8. Taste and adjust: Give it a taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or Italian seasoning as needed.
