Greek Turkey Meatballs. Healthy and flavorful meatballs packed with all your favorite greek spices and veggies!
When I was ogling over Pinterest recently I noticed a bunch of amazing looking meatball recipes. There were so many different flavor combinations from classic Italian to buffalo chicken to sweet and sour!
One thing I noticed though is that there were a ton of Italian and Asian options, but no Greek variations which inspired me to come up with these!
They have a delicious ground turkey base that is laced with vibrant greek seasoning and flavorful veggies. I use Cavender’s No Salt Greek Seasoning simply because I love it and put it on basically everything (rice, potatoes, chicken, and more). I’m not sponsored by them, I simply genuinely love it. You can find their seasonings in most grocery stores and online and if your feeling compelled, you could even make your own seasoning!
So prepare yourself to be wowed by this amazingly delicious and simple dinner/appetizer hack! Now all this talk about Greek food has me craving hummus….who am I kidding I’m ALWAYS craving hummus! 😉
